  1. Import the library and the mkdirpSync function in your TypeScript file:

const { mkdirpSync } = fs;

  1. Use the mkdirpSync function to create a directory with subdirectories:
index.ts
const path = "./my/new/directory";
mkdirpSync(path);
console.log(`Created directory ${path}`);

The mkdirpSync function creates the directory at the specified path along with any non-existent parent directories. The function does not throw an error if the directory already exists.

Here's what the complete TypeScript code looks like:

index.ts
import * as fs from "fs-extra";
const { mkdirpSync } = fs;

const path = "./my/new/directory";
mkdirpSync(path);
console.log(`Created directory ${path}`);

I hope that helps!
