With runtimes like Bun and Deno (and lately Node itself), you can run Typescript directly with pretty much zero config. There is transpilation behind the scenes, but the time that takes is minimal.
I personally switched to Bun, and could not be happier. My build toolchain is quite simple now. I run the Typescript compiler to just type check my code, and use Bun to actually run it. For bundling, I use esbuild.
- gr4vityWall 2y agoIf you don't mind me asking, is there any particular reason you're not using Bun to bundle it?
- prmph 2y agoI wasn't sure the Bun bundler was powerful enough to handle my needs. Bundling is a hard thing to get right, and I tried many, many tools and configurations over the years before settling on esbuild.
