I tried my hand at building llhttp (again...) using our existing nodejs
+ Sucrase (an alternative TypeScript transpiler that does not have too
many dependencies), but it seems that the devs of llhttp use
semi-advanced TypeScript constructs that are at the moment not supported
by Sucrase's transformers. To be specific, I am talking about "Moving
types"[1].

Does anyone know of any other TypeScript transpilers? They do not need
to do typechecking, as long as they allow generation of (valid)
JavaScript files.
