Overview

JS Style Kit provides TypeScript configuration through two mechanisms:

  1. TypeScript support in ESLint configuration
  2. Reusable TypeScript configuration files for your projects

​
TypeScript Support in ESLint

TypeScript support is enabled by default in the ESLint configuration. The typescript-eslint plugin is automatically configured with sensible defaults.

​
Basic Configuration

import { eslintConfig } from "js-style-kit";

// TypeScript is enabled by default
export default eslintConfig();

​
Configuration Options

import { eslintConfig } from "js-style-kit";

export default eslintConfig({
  // Enable with automatic project detection (default)
  typescript: true,

  // Disable TypeScript rules
  // typescript: false,

  // Specify path to your tsconfig.json
  // typescript: "./tsconfig.json",
});

​
TypeScript Rules

When TypeScript support is enabled, JS Style Kit automatically configures the following:

  • Type checking rules from @typescript-eslint
  • Best practices for TypeScript code
  • Consistency rules for TypeScript syntax
  • React-specific TypeScript rules when React support is enabled

​
Reusable TypeScript Configurations

JS Style Kit includes several reusable TypeScript configurations you can extend:

​
Using TypeScript Configuration

In your project, create a tsconfig.json that extends from JS Style Kit’s configurations:

{
  "compilerOptions": {
    // Your custom compiler options...
  },
  "exclude": ["node_modules"],
  "extends": "js-style-kit/typescript-config/base.json",
  "include": ["src/**/*.ts", "src/**/*.tsx"]
}

​
Available TypeScript Configurations

JS Style Kit provides the following TypeScript configurations:

​
Base Configuration (base.json)

The base configuration provides sensible defaults for modern TypeScript projects:

{
  "$schema": "https://json.schemastore.org/tsconfig",
  "compilerOptions": {
    "allowJs": true,
    "declaration": true,
    "declarationMap": true,
    "esModuleInterop": true,
    "incremental": false,
    "isolatedModules": true,
    "lib": ["es2022"],
    "module": "NodeNext",
    "moduleDetection": "force",
    "moduleResolution": "NodeNext",
    "noImplicitOverride": true,
    "noUncheckedIndexedAccess": true,
    "resolveJsonModule": true,
    "skipLibCheck": true,
    "strict": true,
    "target": "ES2022",
    "verbatimModuleSyntax": true
  }
}

​
Library Configuration (lib.json)

For creating TypeScript libraries:

{
  "$schema": "https://json.schemastore.org/tsconfig",
  "compilerOptions": {
    "composite": true
  },
  "extends": "./base.json"
}

​
Documentation Configuration (docs.json)

For documentation projects:

{
  "$schema": "https://json.schemastore.org/tsconfig",
  "compilerOptions": {
    "baseUrl": ".",
    "jsx": "preserve",
    "lib": ["es2022", "DOM", "DOM.Iterable"],
    "module": "ESNext",
    "moduleResolution": "Bundler",
    "noEmit": true,
    "paths": {
      "@site/*": ["./*"]
    },
    "plugins": [{ "name": "next" }]
  },
  "extends": "./base.json"
}

​
Customizing TypeScript Configuration

When creating your own tsconfig.json, you can extend from one of these configurations and add your own custom settings:

{
  "compilerOptions": {
    "baseUrl": ".",
    "outDir": "dist",
    "paths": {
      "@/*": ["src/*"]
    },
    "rootDir": "src"
  },
  "exclude": ["node_modules", "dist"],
  "extends": "js-style-kit/typescript-config/base.json",
  "include": ["src/**/*"]
}

​
TypeScript Integration Tips

​
Project References

For monorepos or projects with multiple packages, use TypeScript’s project references:

{
  "compilerOptions": {
    "composite": true,
    "outDir": "dist",
    "rootDir": "src"
  },
  "extends": "js-style-kit/typescript-config/base.json",
  "references": [{ "path": "../common" }, { "path": "../utils" }]
}

​
Path Aliases

Configure path aliases to simplify imports:

{
  "compilerOptions": {
    "baseUrl": ".",
    "paths": {
      "@app/*": ["src/app/*"],
      "@components/*": ["src/components/*"],
      "@utils/*": ["src/utils/*"]
    }
  },
  "extends": "js-style-kit/typescript-config/base.json"
}

Don’t forget to configure your build tool (webpack, vite, etc.) to handle these path aliases as well.
