What problem does it solve?

This skill enables type safety without a build step by using JSDoc in browser code and erasable syntax TypeScript for Node.js execution.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Browser-based type safety: annotate plain .js files with JSDoc to get IDE support and runtime compatibility without transpiling.
  • Node.js execution with erasable syntax: write .ts files that run directly on Node.js (v24.11.0+) without a build step, provided you avoid non-erasable features.
  • Configuration guidance: apply strict type-checking and module settings via package.json and tsconfig.json to enforce an end-to-end type-safe workflow.

Quick Start

Use the build-free-types skill to enable type checking without a build step by applying JSDoc in .js files and erasable syntax TypeScript in .ts files, then run npm run typecheck.
