'How to disable file extension (".js") need for import/export in an ES6 project?

I have a ts module. I'm compiling this module to another project's specific folder by using "outDir" of tsconfig.json and the command "tsc -w". So, every time when I update the ts module it compiles files to the other project but forgetting file extensions while importing. And that means I have to manually update all extensions each time because it is a must in ES6.

I searched if there's a way to compile ts files with file extensions but found nothing. And I searched to disable file extension (".js") need for import/export in an ES6 project. Then I found this:

...configure your server to ignore the extension...

But he is not saying how to configure.

Edit:

I am running my project with nodemon src/index.js

and when a js file generated which has an import without extension this is the error nodemon gave:

[nodemon] restarting due to changes...
[nodemon] starting `node src/index.js`
internal/process/esm_loader.js:74
    internalBinding('errors').triggerUncaughtException(
                              ^

}
[nodemon] app crashed - waiting for file changes before starting...

But when I add extensions ("js"), it works as expected.
