-          This issue has been automatically marked as stale because it has had no recent activity.
-          It will be closed if no further activity occurs in 30 days.
-          Note as of rules_nodejs v6 the rules_nodejs repository contains only the core nodejs toolchain
-          and `@bazel/runfiles` package. All rulesets are removed and unmaintained.
-          For alternate rulesets suggestions include https://github.com/aspect-build/rules_js, https://github.com/aspect-build/rules_ts
-          Collaborators can add a "cleanup" or "need: discussion" label to keep it open indefinitely.
-          Thanks for your contributions to rules_nodejs!
