Enabling typescript for Asp.net Core ReactJS project

Question

I created an asp.net core Reactjs project via Visual Studio 2022. Unfortunately everything is in javascript (not typescript).

How can i enable typescript for this project?

Answer 1

You can compile TypeScript code with NuGet.

First, Add TypeScript support with NuGet: Microsoft.TypeScript.MSBuild .

Then, Add the tsconfig.json file to the project root. You can use this file to configure options for the TypeScript compiler.Like this:

{
  "compilerOptions": {
    "noImplicitAny": false,
    "noEmitOnError": true,
    "removeComments": false,
    "sourceMap": true,
    "target": "es5",
    "outDir": "wwwroot/js"
  },
  "include": [
    "scripts/**/*"
  ]
}

Lastly, Add TypeScript (.ts) or TypeScript JSX (.tsx) files to your project, and then add TypeScript code.

Hope this can help you.
