Simbu Type1 - Introduction to TypeScript

What is TypeScript?

TypeScript is a programming language that extends JavaScript by adding types. It is designed for large-scale JavaScript applications that require increased maintainability and better tooling support.

Why use TypeScript?

Using TypeScript can provide several benefits, such as:

• Catching errors at compile-time instead of runtime
• Improved code editor support, such as code completion and refactoring
• Better documentation and readability of code
• Improved maintainability of larger code bases
• Support for modern JavaScript features, such as ES6 and above

How to use Simbu Type1 with TypeScript?

Simbu Type1 is a modern and lightweight CSS framework that can be used with TypeScript.

To get started, you can install Simbu Type1 through npm:

npm install simbu-type1

Then you can import the CSS file into your TypeScript file:

import 'simbu-type1/dist/simbu-type1.min.css';

After that, you can start using the styles provided by Simbu Type1 in your HTML code.

Example Usage

Here's an example of a TypeScript file that uses Simbu Type1:

import 'simbu-type1/dist/simbu-type1.min.css';

interface User {
  name: string;
  age: number;
  email: string;
}

const users: User[] = [
  { name: 'John Doe', age: 33, email: 'john@dole.com' },
  { name: 'Jane Smith', age: 25, email: 'jane@smith.com' },
  { name: 'Bob Johnson', age: 41, email: 'bob@johnson.com' },
];

function renderUsers(users: User[]) {
  const userList = document.createElement('ul');

  users.forEach(user => {
    const userItem = document.createElement('li');

    userItem.innerHTML = `
      <h2>${user.name}</h2>
      <p>Age: ${user.age}</p>
      <p>Email: <a href="mailto:${user.email}">${user.email}</a></p>
    `;

    userItem.classList.add('s1-bg-light', 's1-mb-2');

    userList.appendChild(userItem);
  });

  document.body.appendChild(userList);
}

renderUsers(users);

In this example, we're using Simbu Type1 to style our list of users. Each user item has a light background color and a margin-bottom of 2.

Conclusion

Simbu Type1 is a great CSS framework to use with TypeScript. The combination of a modern CSS framework and a type-safe programming language can result in cleaner and more maintainable code.
