TypeScript-Console Extension

TS-Console is an extension for developers wanting to test their TypeScript code directly in the browser without having to compile after each and every change.

The extension also gives you the ability to write and execute code directly in the browser via a dedicated TypeScript console.

Note: Do not use TypeScript directly in the browser when in production, this will result in much slower code. And even worse, users that don't have the extension won't be able to use your web-app properly. Rather compile your code to JavaScript using the TypeScript Compiler.

Alessandro Aprile (ID: 000000a6955b828a) Voted 1 ★ - Updated 01/13/2020 confirm that does not work. Author suggest to try another tab, but in this case, you get an error "NewTabs are not supported. In order to use this extension please navigate to any website or local file" so it is not even considered to work in an empty tab. Strange that the author himself does not know.
