Typescript Bookish Starter

Overview

This repo contains a starter Express server for use in the Bookish bootcamp exercise. Full details of this exercise are on the Swiki page.

Developer Setup

1. If you haven't already, install Node.js v16.13.0, NPM and NVM. There are instructions for how to do this on Windows (with and without WSL) here.
2. Install VSCode (or another preferred editor). VSCode is recommended unless you have a strong preference otherwise due to its good compatibility with typescript, excellent community extensions and for consistency across all developers when pairing.
3. Install the project dependencies with npm install.
4. Run the code!
   • Run in development mode with hot reloading with npm run dev
   • Run without hot reloading using npm start
   • You can check that the formatting of all files is acceptable using npm run lint
