This is my playground for learning different concepts related to Node.js and Typescript 🔍 This project uses Node.js 22 and TypeScript 5.
You can use this project to learn JS too. You can:
- Read the "key takeaways" of each README.md of different packages to understand what are the most important pieces of information that you should remember from that package
- Read the operations of each README.md to see how is was done
- Clone the source code to play it yourself
- Visit the CI (GitHub Actions) to see how the source code is built.
Your contribution is welcome!
Node.js® is a free, open-source, cross-platform JavaScript runtime environment that lets developers create servers, web apps, command line tools and scripts.
pnpm install @types/node --save-devTypeScript is Javascript with syntax for types. TypeScript is a strongly typed programming language that builds on JavaScript, giving you better tooling at any scale. You can install Typescript using pnpm.
pnpm install typescript --save-devWe only need TypeScript as devDependencies (install with --save-dev, -D) because it is a tool used during the development process to transpile TypeScript code into JavaScript, but it is not needed when the application or library is running in production.

The TypeScript Language Server used for providing IntelliSense, auto-completion, and type-checking features in editors. |
npx tsc -htsc: The TypeScript Compiler - Version 5.7.2
COMMON COMMANDS
tsc
Compiles the current project (tsconfig.json in the working directory.)
tsc app.ts util.ts
Ignoring tsconfig.json, compiles the specified files with default compiler options.
tsc -b
Build a composite project in the working directory.
tsc --init
Creates a tsconfig.json with the recommended settings in the working directory.
tsc -p ./path/to/tsconfig.json
Compiles the TypeScript project located at the specified path.
tsc --help --all
An expanded version of this information, showing all possible compiler options
tsc --noEmit
tsc --target esnext
Compiles the current project, with additional settings.

Recursively build all the modules inside the pnpm workspace:
pnpm -r build# --no-git-tag-version don't create Git tag otherwise we will end up with a lot of tags,
# one per commit.
npm version "1.0.0-dev-$(git rev-parse --short HEAD)" --no-git-tag-versionthen
# --tag allows clients to use the SDK using a tag rather than a semantic version.
npm publish --access=public --tag dev
