The purpose of this page is to demostrate how you can create a typescript application using npm commands in nodejs.
1. To create an application use the init command in npm
$ npm init
Then you will see the following prompts
This utility will walk you through creating a package.json file.
It only covers the most common items, and tries to guess sensible defaults.
See `npm help init` for definitive documentation on these fields
and exactly what they do.
Use `npm install <pkg>` afterwards to install a package and
save it as a dependency in the package.json file.
Press ^C at any time to quit.
