Getting Started

To run TypeScript, you'll want to set up the following. TypeScript is a language that adds a "type" system on top of JavaScript, developed by Microsoft. The code you write is ultimately converted (compiled) into JavaScript before it actually runs.

  • Node.js: install it from the official site.
  • TypeScript itself: install it by running npm install -g typescript in your terminal.
  • For a code editor, VS Code is recommended — TypeScript's type checking works out of the box.
