Optimize Toolset

I’ve always been into building performant and accessible sites, but lately I’ve been taking it extremely seriously. So much so that I’ve been building a tool to help me optimize and monitor the sites that I build to make sure that I’m making an attempt to offer the best experience to those who visit them. If you’re into performant, accessible and SEO friendly sites, you might like it too! You can check it out at Optimize Toolset.

About

Hi, 👋, I’m Ryan Hefner  and I built this site for me, and you! The goal of this site was to provide an easy way for me to check the stats on my npm packages, both for prioritizing issues and updates, and to give me a little kick in the pants to keep up on stuff.

As I was building it, I realized that I was actually using the tool to build the tool, and figured I might as well put this out there and hopefully others will find it to be a fast and useful way to search and browse npm packages as I have.

If you’re interested in other things I’m working on, follow me on Twitter or check out the open source projects I’ve been publishing on GitHub.

I am also working on a Twitter bot for this site to tweet the most popular, newest, random packages from npm. Please follow that account now and it will start sending out packages soon–ish.

Open Software & Tools

This site wouldn’t be possible without the immense generosity and tireless efforts from the people who make contributions to the world and share their work via open source initiatives. Thank you 🙏

v26.0.0

Published

High-performance TypeScript runner using the official compiler with intelligent caching and zero-config support.

Readme

tscx

High-performance TypeScript runner that uses the official TypeScript compiler with intelligent caching and zero-configuration support.

Overview

tscx allows you to run TypeScript files directly from the command line while ensuring full type safety. It intelligently caches compiled output to provide near-instant execution on subsequent runs.

Features

  • Pure TypeScript: Uses the official tsc API for complete type checking.
  • Fast Execution: Implements MD5-based caching for optimized performance.
  • Zero Configuration: Run standalone .ts files without a tsconfig.json.
  • Dynamic Configuration: Automatically respects local and global configuration files.
  • Interactive REPL: Built-in TypeScript shell for testing code snippets.
  • Enhanced Diagnostics: Readable, color-coded error reporting with code snippets.
  • Environment Support: Integrated .env file loading.

Installation

npm install -g @sapirrior/tscx

Usage

Run a File

tscx main.ts

Fast Mode (Skip Type Checking)

tscx --fast main.ts

Interactive REPL

tscx

Load Environment Variables

tscx --env-file=.env main.ts

Debugging

tscx --inspect main.ts

Configuration

tscx follows a hierarchical configuration model:

  1. Global: ~/.tscx/tsconfig.json (Auto-generated on first run)
  2. Local: The nearest tsconfig.json to the target file.
  3. Internal Overrides: Critical settings enforced by tscx for secure execution.
