beginner typescript tutorial

Quickstart

Take the course on Total TypeScript. There, you'll find:

  • Video explanations for each problem and solution
  • Transcripts
  • Text explanations
  • A built-in Stackblitz editor
# Installs all dependencies
npm install

# Asks you which exercise you'd like to run, and runs it
npm run exercise

How to take the course

You'll notice that the course is split into exercises. Each exercise is split into a *.problem and a *.solution.

To take an exercise:

  1. Run npm run exercise
  2. Choose which exercise you'd like to run.

This course encourages active, exploratory learning. In the video, I'll explain a problem, and you'll be asked to try to find a solution. To attempt a solution, you'll need to:

  1. Check out TypeScript's docs.
  2. Try to find something that looks relevant.
  3. Give it a go to see if it solves the problem.

You'll know if you've succeeded because the tests will pass.

If you succeed, or if you get stuck, unpause the video and check out the *.solution. You can see if your solution is better or worse than mine!
