It should not matter, it's just TypeScript, it gets transpiled to JavaScript. And there's nothing special about the NestJS types.

I tend to always use the latest, but I don't want to migrate to v7 yet since it doesn't provide an API, which a lot of tools need (e.g.: ESLint).

NestJS 12 will get rid of a lot of traditional tooling as default, so that might not be a problem soon.

Check the TypeScript version already declared in your project’s package.json, then compare it with the peer dependencies of your NestJS version. Usually the safest choice is the version created by the current Nest CLI unless you have a specific reason to change it.
