SPFX supported version for SPSE
Hi Nicolae, SharePoint Framework support was updated to version 1.5.1 in the Version 23H1 feature update for SharePoint Server Subscription Edition. As documented on our SharePoint Framework development with SharePoint Server 2019 and Subscription Edition page, we also support Node.js versions up to version 14.
This is one step on our long-term journey to improve and expand the capabilities of SharePoint Framework in SharePoint Server Subscription Edition. We'll continue investing in supporting newer SharePoint Framework capabilities and related technologies, such as newer versions of Node.js, React, etc. Support for these related technologies will be decoupled from the SharePoint Framework version we declare support for, so we'll be able to support newer versions of those technologies even if the original release of any particular SharePoint Framework version didn't support it. The next feature update for SPSE will focus on supporting newer versions of React and Office UI Fabric React.
Wow, that's great news. Didn't expect it to be honest. Will this be ported to SharePoint 2019 also?
What about typescript version? When will that be updated?

Hi Nicolae, we'll be focusing our new SPFx (and related tech) investments on SharePoint Server Subscription Edition. SharePoint 2019 will continue to use SPFx 1.4.1.
Afraid I don't know about TypeScript - I'll have to check on that. Is there a particular version that you're interested in?
- NicolaeJun 13, 2023Brass ContributorSorry, I must have edited my post after your reply. Can you tell me when and what versions of React and Typescript are you working on for the next release?
- TroyStarrJun 13, 2023MicrosoftI just got confirmation that SPSE is currently using TypeScript version 2.4.2 today and we don't have near-term plans to update that version. But let us know if there's a particular version that you're interested in (and why) and we can consider this for the future.
We're not ready to announce which newer version of React and Office UI Fabric React we'll support yet, but it should be pretty locked in by August so feel free to ask me then. 🙂
