# TypeScript for Picotron
|
|
|
|
This is a template project to mix-and-match TypeScript and Lua for your Picotron projects.
|
|
|
|
## Setup
|
|
|
|
### Requirements
|
|
|
|
- [NodeJS](https://nodejs.org/en/download)
|
|
- [pnpm](https://pnpm.io/installation)
|
|
|
|
### Create your project
|
|
|
|
- Create a new project (i.e. `my-project`) from this template
|
|
- Clone `my-project` in your Picotron's `drive` folder
|
|
- `cd my-project` then `pnpm install`
|
|
- Inside Picotron:
|
|
- Open the terminal, `cd my-project` then `load game`
|
|
- Edit `main.lua` to fix `cd` line to `cd("/my-project/build")`
|
|
- Run the game
|
|
|
|
## Development
|
|
|
|
- `pnpm dev` will watch and rebuild your **TypeScript** code.
|
|
- `pnpm build` is required when you change **Lua** code.
|
|
|
|
The resulting code is a single `build/bundle.lua` file.
|
|
|
|
## Publish
|
|
|
|
**In Picotron**
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
> cd my-project
|
|
> load game
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
- Open the code inside Picotron
|
|
- Comment the `cd()` line in main.lua
|
|
- Save
|
|
|
|
**On the host**
|
|
|
|
`pnpm build`
|
|
|
|
**In Picotron**

|
|
```
