Typescript Project Configuration

npm init -y

npx tsc --init

• Create tsconfig.json file in the root of your project. This file will contain the configuration settings for the TypeScript compiler and paste the following code into it:

{
  "compilerOptions": {
    "target": "es6",
    "module": "commonjs",
    "strict": true,
    "outDir": "./dist",
    "rootDir": "./src",
    "esModuleInterop": true
  },
  "include": ["src"],
  "exclude": ["node_modules"]
}

• project structure project/ ├── src/ // Source code │ ├── index.ts // Entry point │ └── utils.ts // Example module ├── dist/ // Compiled JavaScript output ├── node_modules/ // Dependencies ├── tsconfig.json // TypeScript configuration └── package.json // Project dependencies and scripts

---

• Install TypeScript and any required packages:

npm install typescript --save-dev

• Update the scripts section in your package.json

"scripts": {
  "build": "tsc",
  "start": "node dist/index.js"
}

• Run the Compiler

npm run build
