Use the feature/begin and feature/end branches to follow along with the Pluralsight course here

To get started go to your fork directory in a command prompt and do this:

npm install
npm start

Uses npm scripts to run locally installed packages without the need to run from command line, so everything is local to avoid versioning issues with a plethora of globally installed versions on student’s ‘puters. Since you want to use the local version of stuff (e.g. typescript, typings, etc), you don’t want to run command line directly (contrary to the course instructions) since that will either:

  • Fail if you don’t have the node module installed globally,
  • Or if you do have it installed globally, it will run the global version which may be different than the local version used in this project.

Instead do this (as needed):

npm run tsc 
npm run tsc -- -w
npm run typings -- install dt~silly-node-module --global --save

The pertinent part being npm run and if you want to add command line parameters follow the module name with the double dash (--) then add your command line parameters. Right now only bower, tsc, and typings have scripts in the package.json file that will allow this, so if there are other command-line-ish things you want to add to package.json, then add them to the list of scripts

Requires the following global installations:

  • npm

Also globally installed:

  • tslint (used by VSCode)
