Abstract

The TypeScript compiler may well be hidden behind your development tools, but it is worth familiarizing yourself with the various compiler options. The compiler itself is optimized for compiling entire projects, rather than individual files. Running the compiler against the whole project means that you are only loading the standard library once, rather than many times. You may find that running compilation for a single file takes nearly as long as compiling the entire project.
