Project Overview

This project is a template to get started with Node.js and TypeScript projects in the quickest form possible. It is designed to help developers set up a basic Node.js application with TypeScript, allowing them to focus on writing code without worrying about the initial setup.

Project Structure

The project structure is as follows:

.
├── src
│ └── index.ts
├── package.json
├── tsconfig.json
└── .env

Features

  • TypeScript Support: Write your application using TypeScript, a statically typed superset of JavaScript.
  • ts-node Integration: Run TypeScript files directly without needing to compile them first.
  • Environment Variable Management: Easily manage environment variables using a .env file.
  • Live Reload: Make a change to src/index.ts or .env and the server will automatically restart and show your changes in the console

Scripts

The following scripts are available in the package.json file:

  • build: Compiles the TypeScript files to JavaScript.
  • dev: Runs the application in development mode with ts-node and watches for changes.
  • test: Placeholder for running tests.

TypeScript Configuration

The tsconfig.json file is configured to support modern JavaScript features and strict type checking:

Getting Started

  1. Install Dependencies: Run npm install to install the required dependencies.
  2. Set Up Environment Variables: Create a .env file in the root directory and define your environment variables.
  3. Run the Application: Use npm run dev to start the application in development mode.
