love-typescript-definitions v11.4.3

Contains declaration files to build LÖVE 2D projects with TypeScript!

Built for use with TypeScriptToLua. Check out love-typescript-template to get a sample project to build off.

Or run the following in a terminal to try it out:

# Requires NPX and Love2D to be available via cli
npm init -y
npm install -D typescript-to-lua typescript love-typescript-definitions
echo '{ "compilerOptions": { "target": "ESNext", "lib": ["ESNext"], "moduleResolution": "Node", "types": ["love-typescript-definitions", "@typescript-to-lua/language-extensions"] }, "tstl": { "luaTarget": "JIT" } }' > tsconfig.json
echo "love.draw = () => { love.graphics.print('Hello World') };" > main.ts
npx tstl -p tsconfig.json
love .

TIP: Use tstl's watch mode (--watch) if you're after fast and automatic transpilation as files are updated.

Available on NPM.

npm install love-typescript-definitions
