What you need for this book

TypeScript has a standalone compiler install, so any text editor can be used to develop TypeScript applications. The examples provided with this book will use Microsoft's Visual Studio, and it is recommended that you use it too to help you follow the examples; however, this is not a requirement. A basic understanding of JavaScript and web development is required as not every language construct will be covered; just the ones that TypeScript provides on top of it.
