1.0.0: Typescript related build/bundle errors

[zarko-tg]

Is there any or a new requirement on a specific min. Typescript version?

We're more or less forced to use an older one (2.8.4) cause of project dependencies complexity,
so now we're getting errors such as:

[compiler.karma-typescript]: Compiling project using Typescript 2.8.4

...

etc.

Yes, there is now a minimum version of Typescript 3. I will add this to the release notes to be more clear then.

Although if you cannot update Typescript, you can try this workaround suggested by my colleague getsentry/sentry-javascript#2322 (comment)
