If I try to run the script src/index.ts, it results in this error

TypeError [ERR_UNKNOWN_FILE_EXTENSION]: Unknown file extension ".ts" for /home/chen/development/relatrack-backend/src/index.ts
    at Object.getFileProtocolModuleFormat [as file:] (node:internal/modules/esm/get_format:160:9)
    at defaultGetFormat (node:internal/modules/esm/get_format:203:36)

    at async MessagePort.handleMessage (node:internal/modules/esm/worker:196:18) {

}

But if I run the script with script/index.js, I get this error

node:internal/modules/cjs/loader:1147
  throw err;
  ^
