I suggest against it. Just use JSDocs syntax and typescript (the CLI and VSCode checker) will check it. No need to use transcompiler anymore. It was more useful when JS itself was more ES5 based and CommonJS.

Using something like esbuild will get you minification if you want it, but it's only for deployment, not actually needed for runtime. Having pure JS code is much easier to work with and debug.
