Just as developers can run meteor create --react my-react-app meteor create --minimal my-minimal-app meteor create --bare my-bare-app meteor create --full my-full-app they can now run meteor create --typescript my-typescript-app to produce a new TypeScript application, based on the --react application, configured using a recommended tsconfig.json file. This app represents the current best/simplest-known way to set up a Meteor-compatible TypeScript application, but it is still very much a work in progress. Please feel free to submit pull requests to improve it, or create issues to discuss how it should work. For example, the community-maintained @types/meteor package covers all the core packages used by this starter application, but it has not been updated in a while, so there will no doubt be meteor/* packages with missing types. In future versions, Meteor should ideally generate the appropriate .d.ts files from TypeScript package source code, so that no separate @types/meteor/* declarations need to be maintained.
