A playground where I test configurations for the TypeScript type checker / compiler.
TSC is notoriously difficult to configure correctly and I have seen things get messed up in lots of projects. So hopefully some of my test configs will actually work and I can use them as a reference in future projects.
To be fair, TSC is by far not the worst offender. If I only had to configure
TSC I'd be happy but instead we end up piling build tools upon bundlers upon
transpilers upon custom file formats (*.vue*, *.astro – I'm looking at you!)
together with buggy LSPs & IDE plugins, and then we pray everything still works,
i.e. builds and type-checks and doesn't produce squiggly lines in our editor.
Since I will likely not spend a long time working on each experiment, let alone keep it updated in the future, dependencies will probably become outdated after a while. For this reason, each experiment is tagged with the (approximate) date of when I worked on it to provide an indicator of how up-to-date it is.
