[TypeScript] Installing TypeScript and Running the TypeScript Compiler (tsc)

To install TypeScript, you can use npm (Node Package Manager) by running the following command in your terminal:

npm install -g typescript

This will install TypeScript globally on your machine.

Once you have TypeScript installed, you can use the TypeScript compiler (tsc) to compile your TypeScript code into JavaScript. To do this, create a TypeScript file (with a .ts extension) and run the tsc command followed by the name of the TypeScript file:

tsc filename.ts

This will compile the TypeScript code into JavaScript and create a new file with the same name but with a .js extension. You can then run the JavaScript file in your browser or Node.js environment.
