Here's an example with additional options:

index.tsx

    mode: 0o755, // file permissions in octal format
    recursive: true // creates parent directories if they do not exist
})

The createFileSync function creates an empty file at the specified path. If the file already exists, it will overwrite it. It returns a void value.

Note that if you want to create a directory instead, you should use the mkdirSync function instead.
