FAQPage Schema
How do I run TypeScript files directly without a separate compilation step?

You can run TypeScript files directly without a separate build step by using a unified JavaScript runtime that natively interprets TS. This eliminates transpilation configuration, allowing you to execute TS scripts immediately and speed up development.

What is the best way to speed up JavaScript dependency installation in a monorepo?

The best way to speed up JavaScript dependency installation is replacing your current package manager with an all-in-one binary. It uses a dedicated lockfile to resolve and install dependencies significantly faster across monorepos.

Can I replace Node.js and npm with a single tool for running and bundling apps?

Yes, you can replace Node.js and npm with a single fast binary designed to run, manage, and bundle JavaScript apps. It combines the runtime, package manager, tester, and bundler into one CLI for browser or server builds.

How do I bundle JavaScript and TypeScript apps for different environments?

You bundle JavaScript and TypeScript apps for different environments by using a built-in bundler command within the runtime CLI. It outputs browser or server builds directly from your source files without requiring external bundling plugins.

Does this JavaScript runtime support built-in testing for TypeScript projects?

Yes, the runtime supports built-in testing for TypeScript projects through a dedicated test runner command. It executes tests natively without requiring external testing frameworks, integrating the test runner directly within the single CLI.

What configuration files are needed to reproduce builds in a JavaScript runtime?

To reproduce builds in a JavaScript runtime, you need configuration files like a TOML file for settings and a dedicated binary lockfile for dependencies. These files ensure consistent script execution and dependency resolution across environments.
