are there plans for SST to support node 16 any time soon ?

It should work fine with node 16 but AWS lambda doesn't support it

oh great, so it's less of a framework itself more of a Lambda support, thanks Dax 🙏

Just to confirm for you, I am successfully running SST/CDK in Node 16, but Lambdas are stuck at Node 14 until AWS supports it. (Unless you bring in a custom runtime.)

yeah, seems like AWS is on track to release support for node 16 too, Node 16 turned into LTS on Oct 26th which means Lambda support should be there in a couple of weeks
