We talk about a lot of advanced Node.js and TypeScript concepts on the blog, particularly focused around Domain-Driven Design and large-scale enterprise application patterns. However, I received a few emails from readers that were interested in seeing what a basic TypeScript starter project looks like. So I've put together just that.
- Minimal
- TypeScript v4
- Testing with Jest
- Linting with Eslint and Prettier
- Pre-commit hooks with Husky
- VS Code debugger scripts
- Local development with Nodemon
Go to Binance and create an API key, then create .env file and put in the information as .env.example
Starts the application in development using nodemon and ts-node to do hot reloading.
Starts the app in production by first building the project with npm run build, and then executing the compiled JavaScript at build/index.js.
Builds the app at build, cleaning the folder first.
Runs the jest tests once.
Run the jest tests in watch mode, waiting for file changes.
Format your code.
