ts.md

use tsc ./file.ts --watch to watch for updates while running the app.

fixed by using npm run commands in package.json

"scripts": { "build": "npx tsc", "prestart": "npm run build", "start": "node src/index.js", "preserver": "npm run build", "server": "concurrently "npx tsc -w" "nodemon src/index.js"" }

typescript attemps

// import * as dotenv from 'dotenv'; // dotenv.config({path: __dirname + '/.env'}); // const port: number = process.env.PORT || 3000;
