Ts-devscript NPM

DevScript

Simple development script to make working with TypeScript projects easy. DevScript

Why

I wrote this script to simplify my TypeScript workflow as I like to have all my files organised and hate having multiple terminals open at the same time. This script copies and compiles everything in src to out and then runs the file. It also automatically restarts the file on file additions, changes and deletions.

Installation

# global
npm i --location=global ts-devscript

# npm
npm i -D ts-devscript

# yarn
yarn add -D ts-devscript

Usage

# if global
devScript

# if local
npx devScript
