create a website in typescript

To create a website using TypeScript, follow these steps:

  1. Set up a development environment with TypeScript installed. You can install TypeScript using npm, the Node.js package manager:
index.ts
npm install -g typescript

2 lines
  1. Create a new directory for your project and navigate into it:
index.ts
mkdir my-project
cd my-project
31 chars
3 lines
  1. Initialize your project with npm:
index.ts
npm init
9 chars
2 lines

This will create a package.json file in your project directory.

  1. Create an index.html file in your project directory. This is the main HTML file for your website. You can add your HTML code here.

  2. Create a styles.css file in your project directory. This is where you can add your CSS code to style your website.

  3. Create a new TypeScript file (e.g. app.ts) in your project directory. This is where you can write your TypeScript code.

  4. In your TypeScript file, you can use the document object to manipulate the HTML of your website. For example, to change the text of an HTML element with the ID my-element, you can write:

index.ts
const element = document.getElementById("my-element");
element.innerText = "New text";

  1. Compile your TypeScript code to JavaScript using the TypeScript compiler. You can do this by running the following command in your project directory:
index.ts
tsc app.ts

2 lines

This will create a new JavaScript file (app.js) in your project directory.

  1. In your HTML file, add a script tag to include your JavaScript file:
<script src="app.js"></script>

  1. Open your index.html file in a web browser to see your TypeScript website in action!
