Exploring the TypeScript Ecosystem with @cap-js/cds-typer, cds-ts, and node-ts
Part one of two: a bookshop project built in TypeScript from cds init, with cds-typer added as a development dependency and the surrounding tools — cds-ts and node-ts — put in place so the project runs locally. A setup walkthrough rather than an argument about typing, and it stops at the point where the application works on a laptop; deployment is part two.

Exploring the TypeScript Ecosystem with @cap-js/cds-typer, cds-ts, and node-ts Part - 2Exploring the TypeScript Ecosystem with @cap-js/cds-typer, cds-ts, and node-ts Part - 2Part two takes the TypeScript project from part one to Cloud Foundry: cds add mta, then the parts of the generated descriptor the author singles out as needing attention for a TypeScript build rather than a JavaScript one. The pair together is the whole path — typed model locally, then deployed — which is where a typing walkthrough usually stops short.satya-dev, published 2024-07-19

TypeScript Sheriff: How can I use TypeScript in the SAP ecosystem? (Part 2 of 3)TypeScript Sheriff: How can I use TypeScript in the SAP ecosystem? (Part 2 of 3)The middle part of three, and the one about SAP: where TypeScript is supported across a side-by-side extension on BTP, as of July 2023. It says the SAP Cloud SDK already generates OData clients as .ts files and UI5 ships types for its controls and modules, the ground of TypeScript support in UI5, while CAP offers standard types and the new @cap-js/cds-typer generates types for a service, which is typing, with the caveat that running cds-ts commands could overwrite what cds-typer generated.MikeDoyle, published 2023-07-05
