Suggested Changes

Project service has been in the wild for a couple of weeks now and we're starting to see the common ways it's tripping folks up.

The most common question I've seen come up is around the new "Parsing error: was not found by the project service. Consider either including it in the tsconfig.json or including it in allowDefaultProject". We should explain how to fix this, such as:

• Cases where the file that's inside a directory with a tsconfig.json might not be in there: e.g. https://github.com/JoshuaKGoldberg/repros/tree/tseslint-project-service-non-included-nearest-tsconfig
  • ...and when to switch to parserOptions.project for now, which that case might be an example of.
• Cases where the file should be added to the default project
