Starting a Server Project

Purpose: To quickly get going with a Node.js project that deals with TypeScript, Rollup, Prettier, ESLint, Jest, etc. use tsdx.

npx tsdx create YOUR_SERVER_PROJECT

Select "basic". This will create a project with some of the necessary tooling.

  • Edit license as needed.
  • If you don't use yarn, delete yarn.lock and run npm install to generate the package-lock.json.
  • Run git init to initialize the git repo.
  • Update the Prettier settings in package.json to your liking.

At this point, you should commit the files and then pick a server library to work with.
