How to get started

Prerequisites

Have a modern version of Node.installed. Last check was with v20.11

How to set up

• Open a Terminal in the folder containing the package.json
• Type npm i to install the dependencies inside of the project automatically
• Type npm run dev into the terminal and see if your files would be compiled correctly
• Take a look at the index.ts, the package.json and the tsconfig.json file to see how they work
• The index.ts file is the entry-point of your application (defined in rollup.config.js) - see how it can import other modules
• after you watched how the typescript modules work with each other you can delete all .ts files in the src folder except index.ts
• then empty the index.ts file and empty the body of your index.html file and start building your own app

Starting the app

• After you did set up your application, run npm run build to compile it. If there are no erros, there should be a "build"-folder in your project folder
• take a look at index.html - it should already have a script file connected to your TypeScript (The browser can only run JavaScript)

Write any source files in typescript inside the source folder, the main file being index.ts as entry file for vite.

run npm run preview to preview your executed build
