Simple Angular 2 app written in TypeScript

Use latest TypeScript compiler

TypeScript 1.5 beta will include everything you need. Until that is released, we use a GitHub reference to the latest alpha.

$ npm install -g typescript@^1.5.0-beta

Start up the compiler

$ cd ts-quickstart
$ tsc -w
message TS6042: Compilation complete. Watching for file changes.

Use a TypeScript-aware editor

We have good experience using these editors:

• Visual Studio Code
• Webstorm 10
• Atom with TypeScript plugin
• Sublime Text with Typescript-Sublime-Plugin

Load the app

If you want to get up and running immediately, copy the completed sources:

$ cp complete/* .

From the directory that contains index.html:

$ npm install -g http-server  # Or sudo npm install -g http-server
$ http-server                 # Creates a server at localhost:8080
# In a browser, visit localhost:8080/index.html
