The flat config requires enabling a flag in the VS code plugin, it in not

"eslint.experimental.useFlatConfig": true

We had to set the type to module to get the `import` to work. Setting .mjs

are exporting a TypeScript library not a bundled one, and all the other source
files apart from this are intended to be `*.ts`.

The version field is still required, but we can additionally add a private for
