If we write a Typescript program then how should we run it on Windows?
We already know how to run Javascript (.js
) from a mand line on Windows:
C:\Users\Harikesh>cscript MyScriptFile.js
What is the equivalent for TypeScript (.ts
) files?

For general guidance, TypeScript's Quick Start guide describes the options for installing TypeScript and how to use it to execute a
.ts
script that you've written. Is there a specific part of that you're having issues with? – Jonathan Lonowski Commented Oct 13, 2015 at 5:52 -

Reset to default 6You can pile the Typescript down to Javascript, and then run it from a mand line with Node.js, or in a web browser:
1) Download and install Node.js.
2) Open a Windows mand prompt and run:
npm install -g typescript
3) Navigate to the directory where your typescript file is in, and type:
tsc yourtypescriptfile.ts
4a) Run the resulting JavaScript file with Node.js:
node yourtypescriptfile.js
-or-
4b) Make an HTML file (in the same directory) that includes yourtypescriptfile.js using <source></source>
tags:
<script src="yourtypescriptfile.js"></script>
5) Open your HTML file in a web browser.
