Read the announcement post!](https://devblogs.microsoft.com/typescript/typescript-native-port/) This repo is very much under active development; as such there are no published artifacts at this time. Interested developers can clone and run locally to try out things as they become available. ## How to Build and Run This repo uses [Go 1.24 or higher](https://go.dev/dl/), [Node.js with npm](https://nodejs.org/), and [`hereby`](https://www.npmjs.com/package/hereby). For tests and code generation, this repo contains a git submodule to the main TypeScript repo pointing to the commit being ported. When cloning, you'll want to clone with submodules: ```console $ git clone --recurse-submodules https://github.com/microsoft/typescript-go.git ``` If you have already cloned the repo, you can initialize the submodule with: ```console $ git submodule update --init --recursive ``` With the submodule in place and `npm ci`, you can run tasks via `hereby`, similar to the TypeScript repo: ```console $ hereby build # Verify that the project builds $ hereby test # Run all tests $ hereby install-tools # Install additional tools such as linters $ hereby lint # Run all linters $ hereby format # Format all code $ hereby generate # Generate all Go code (e.g. diagnostics, committed to repo) ``` Additional tasks are a work in progress. `hereby` is not required to work on the repo; the regular `go` tooling (e.g., `go build`, `go test ./...`) will work as expected. `hereby` tasks are provided as a convenience for those familiar with the TypeScript repo. ### Running `tsgo` After running `hereby build`, you can run `built/local/tsgo`, which behaves mostly the same as `tsc` (respects tsconfig, but also prints out perf stats). This is mainly a testing entry point; for higher fidelity with regular `tsc`, run `tsgo tsc [flags]`, which behaves more similarly to `tsc`. ### Running LSP Prototype To try the prototype LSP experience: * Run VS Code in the repo workspace (`code .`) * Copy `.vscode/launch.template.json` to `.vscode/launch.json` * F5 (or `Debug: Start Debugging` from the command palette) This will launch a new VS Code instance which uses the Corsa LS as the backend. If correctly set up, you should see "typescript-go" as an option in the Output pane: ![LSP Prototype Screenshot](.github/ls-screenshot.png) ## What Works So Far? This is still a work in progress and is not yet at full feature parity with TypeScript. Bugs may exist. Please check this list carefully before logging a new issue or assuming an intentional change. Status overview: * Program creation (read `lib`, `target`, `reference`, `import`, `files`, `include`, and `exclude`): **done**. You should see the *same files*, with modules resolved to the *same locations*, as in a TypeScript 5.8 (TS5.8) invocation * Not all resolution modes are supported yet * Parsing/scanning (read source text and determine syntax shape): **done**. You should see the exact same *syntax errors* as in a TS5.8 invocation * Commandline and `tsconfig.json` parsing: **mostly done**. Note that the entry point is slightly different (for now) * Type resolution (resolve computed types to a concrete internal representation): **done**. You should see the same types as in TS5.8 * Type checking (check for problems in functions, classes, and statements): **done**. You should see the same errors, in the same locations, with the same messages, as TS 5.8 * Types printback in errors may display slightly differently; this is in progress * JavaScript-specific inference and JS Doc: **not ready** * JSX: **not ready** * Declaration emit: **not ready**. Coming soon! * Emit (JS output): **in progress**. `target: esnext` (minimal downleveling) is well-supported but other targets may have gaps * Watch mode: **prototype** (watches the correct files and rebuilds, but doesn't do incremental rechecking) * Build mode / project references: **not ready** * Incremental build: **not ready** * Language service (LSP): **prototype** only, expect minimal functionality (errors, hover, go to def). More features soon! * ASCII files only for now * API: **not ready** Definitions: * **done** aka "believed done": We're not currently aware of any deficits or major left work to do. OK to log bugs * **in progress**: currently being worked on; some features may work and some might not. OK to log panics, but nothing else please * **prototype**: proof-of-concept only; do not log bugs * **not ready**: either haven't even started yet, or far enough from ready that you shouldn't bother messing with it yet ## Other Notes Long-term, we expect this repo is that its contents will be merged into `microsoft/TypeScript`. As a result, the repo and issue tracker for typescript-go will eventually be closed, so treat discussions/issues accordingly.
