Is typescript required for the nexus framework?

Is typescript required for the nexus framework? ie. can I have app.js and graphql.js files? Or are they required to have the .ts extension?

Hello @ryanking1809 👋
Graphql, Prisma, Nexus and all plugins are running around highly typed code. Maybe I'm wrong, but you can't use this framework without a .ts file extension.
The framework works by reading your code typing definition and helps you to keep your schema definition consistent 👍
Even if .js works, I would not recommend using it with this framework 🙂
