.
Create
a
`
ts

.
json
`
file

\n
\n

,
you
need
to

.
json
`
file
in
the
root
directory
of
your
project
.
This
file
is
used
to
configure
the
Type

compiler
.
You
can
create
a
basic
`
ts
config
.
json
`
file
with
the
following
content
:
\n
\n
{
\n
"
compiler
Options
":
{
\n
"
out
Dir
":
"
build
",
\n
"
source

}

Write
your
Type
Script
code
:
\n
\n
Now
that
you
have
Type
Script
installed
and
your
`
ts
config
.
json
`
file
set
up
,
you
can
start
writing
your
Type
Script
code
.
You
can
create
a
`
src
`
directory
in
your
project
directory
and
create
a
file
called
`
main
.
ts
`
in
it
.
Here
'
s
an
example
of
a
simple
Type
Script
program
:
\n
\n
console
.
log
("
Hello
,
world
!");
\n
\n
8
.
Run
your
Type
Script
program

run
your
Type

use
the
`
ts

`
command

:
\n
\n
ts
c
main
.
ts
\n
\n
This
command
will
compile
your
`
main
.
ts
`
file
and
output
the
compiled
JavaScript
code
to
the
`
build
`
directory
.
\n
9
.
Use
Git
:
\n
\n
Once
you
have
your
Type
Script
project
set
up
,
you
can
use
Git
to
manage
your
code
.
Git
is
a
version
control
system
that
allows
you
to
track
changes
to
your
code
over
time
.
To
use
Git
with
your
Type
Script
project
,
you
can
create
a
new
Git
repository
in
your
project
directory
and
initialize
it
with
the
following
command
:
\n
\n
git
init
\n
\n
Then
,
you
can
add
your
`
ts
config
.
json
`
file
to
the
`.
git
ignore
`
file
to
avoid
accident
ally
comm
itting
it
.
\n
\n
That
'
s
it
!
You
now
have
a
Type
Script
project
initialized
using
npm
and
git
.
You
can
start
writing
your
code
and
comm
itting
it
to
your
Git
repository
to
track
changes
over
time
.
