# Defold TypeScript Template (minimal)
A dev environment for [Defold](https://defold.com/) that transpiles TypeScript into lua using [TypeScriptToLua](https://github.com/TypeScriptToLua/TypeScriptToLua).
## Features
- Full Lua and Defold API type definitions for TypeScript auto-complete and type checking
- Library of types for Defold extensions via `npm run resolve`
- Eslint config for handling the caveats of TypeScriptToLua and keeping your code correct
- Handles script, gui_script, and module exports using familiar ES6 export syntax
- Full BoilerPlate game project ready to transpile and go
- File watcher via `npm run dev` to transpile on save
_Note that you will need to have [Node.js](https://nodejs.org) installed._
## Quick Start
- Use `npm run dev` to start a watcher that compiles and emits lua and script when you save
- Use `npm run build` to just compile your ts, sans watcher
## Installation
1. Fork this template or use [degit](https://www.npmjs.com/package/degit) to download the template locally
```bash
npx degit ts-defold/tsd-template my-game
# or
git clone https://github.com/ts-defold/tsd-template.git my-game
```
2. Initialize
```bash
cd my-game
npm install
```
3. Generate
```bash
npm run build # Transpile the TypeScript files to lua
# or
npm run dev # Watch for changes and regenerate files on save
```
4. Code
```
code .
```
5. Open `app/game.project` in Defold
- Start making games with TypesScript!
