# The-TypeScript-Workshop

The TypeScript Workshop is designed for software developers who want to broaden
their skill set by learning TypeScript. To get the most out of this book, you should
have a basic knowledge of JavaScript or experience of using another similar
programming language.

## Installation and Setup ##

### VS Code
This book uses VS Code as the IDE to save and run TypeScript and JavaScript files.
You can download VS Code from the following website: https://code.visualstudio.com/
download. Scroll to the bottom of the page and click on the download button relevant
to your system. Follow the instructions displayed on your screen.

#### Node.js
You need to install the latest version of Node.js, which includes npm. You can
download and install Node.js from https://nodejs.org/en/download/. Click and download
the installer relevant to your system.

### TypeScript
This book uses TypeScript version 4.1.3. Once you have VS Code and Node.js installed
in your system, you can install TypeScript by opening a terminal and running the
following command:
npm install -g [email protected]

The preceding command will install version 4.1.3 globally. There are several other
libraries and dependencies that you might have to install as part of executing the
code given in the exercises and activities in this book. However, instructions for doing
so have been provided in the relevant chapter/section.
