Lets take an example from previous post and do the following steps
Add to project tsconfig.json
and edit it like this for example, point the out dir
{
"compilerOptions": {
"module": "commonjs",
"target": "es5",
"sourceMap": true,
"outDir": "out"
},
"exclude": [
"node_modules"
],
"include": [
"src/scripts/**/*"
]
}
Then alter the structure of files to the following
alter index.html
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<meta charset="UTF-8">
<title>Hello world, typeScript!</title>
</head>
<body>
<div id="person"></div>
<script src="../out/index.js"></script>
</body>
</html>
open typescript tool panel
now press compile all in dropdown like below
as result we will see the js and map files in out directory, map files needed for debugging and can be disabled in tsconfig.json file by switching sourceMap field to false
