Typescript types

[HappyCerberus]

Is there a way to get access to the types for typescript?

Notably, it would be great to have access to the event types.

TypeScript includes built-in types for various DOM events. You can access these types directly. Here are a few examples:

1. MouseEvent for mouse events
2. KeyboardEvent for keyboard events
3. FocusEvent for focus events
4. Event for generic events

Here is an example of using these types:

document.addEventListener('click', (event: MouseEvent) => {
  console.log(event.clientX, event.clientY);
});

document.addEventListener('keydown', (event: KeyboardEvent) => {
  console.log(event.key, event.code);
});

also there are different ways more...

@Masihbalali I dont believe they were asking about generic DOM built-ins, but rather Web Awesome events themselves.

@HappyCerberus Not currently. And unfortunately TypeScript doesn't really offer a great way to "bundle" everything into a single .d.ts file, so until we publish to NPM, there's no great solution for now.

You would have to vendor every .d.ts file from Web Awesome, which is going to be at least 100+ files.

OK, fair enough.
