Project Setup

Follow these steps to set up your project:

1. Initialize a new npm project:

   npm init -y

2. Install TypeScript as a development dependency:

   npm i -D typescript

3. Install ts-node as a development dependency:

   npm i -D ts-node

4. Install nodemon as a development dependency:

   npm i -D nodemon

5. Create a tsconfig.json file with the following content:

   {
       "compilerOptions": {
           "module": "NodeNext",
           "moduleResolution": "NodeNext",
           "baseUrl": "src",
           "outDir": "dist",
           "sourceMap": true,
           "noImplicitAny": true
       },
       "include": ["src/**/*"]
   }

6. Create a nodemon.json file with the following content:

   {
       "watch": ["src"],
       "ext": ".ts,.js",
       "exec": "ts-node ./src/index.ts"
   }

7. Create a folder named src and add an index.ts file inside it.

8. Add the following line to the scripts section of your package.json:

   "start": "nodemon"

9. Run the project:

   • Add a console.log("something") statement in index.ts.
   • Start the project by running:

     npm start

This will verify that the project is set up correctly.
