TypeScript in Servoy Editor?

Feedback
1

I’m curious about something. I heard that Servoy Titanium has Typescript support. Is there a way of activating this in the Servoy Editor itself?

I found this in the wiki;
https://wiki.servoy.com/display/DOCS/How+to+use+TypeScript+for+Web+Package+projects

It is possible to use TypeScript when writing code for components and services inside Web Package projects

This seems to be ONLY for creating Web Package projects… but does this ALSO apply for activating TypeScript in the Servoy Editor for general purpose use? Is there a way of activating TypeScript for the normal Servoy Editor?

no this is only used for web packages because those are build against angular and that uses typescript.

you can’t use typescript for servoy code.

Roger, thank you for clarifying!

At ServoyCamp you said that Servoy 2023.09 had greater support for ECMA & some TypeScript in the code editors.

Is there a summary of what new code is supported (e.g. ‘let’, ‘const’ & ‘=>’ ) or a good web site or similar that those of us the know the Servoy version of JavaScript can learn from ??

Thanks

Also, the information on the typescript plugin seems outdated.
Although the GitHub page still exists, when trying to add the install link to the software update sites in Eclipse it doesn’t recognise this as a valid link.
