TSConfig

Noun · Development

Definitions

  1. The `tsconfig.json` configuration file at the root of a TypeScript project that specifies compiler options (target, module system, strictness level), file inclusion/exclusion patterns, and project references. It controls how `tsc` transpiles and type-checks the codebase.

    In plain English: A settings file that tells the TypeScript compiler how strict to be and how to process your code.

    Example: "Set `strict: true` in your tsconfig — it enables noImplicitAny, strictNullChecks, and a bunch of other flags that catch real bugs."
