I want to use replaceAll method in TypeScript under Node.js and I can't fix the following error. How can I fix it?

Error:

TypeError: text.replaceAll is not a function

My code:

let text: string = 'a xxx b xxx c';

const letter = 'x';
const replacement = 'y';

text = text.replaceAll(letter, replacement);

Try to add "ES2021.String" in your tsconfig.json file under compilerOptions -> lib.

Example:

{
    "compilerOptions": {
        // ...
        "lib": ["ES2021.String"]
    },
    // ...
}
