Usually, it's pretty easy to mentally map your compiled Luau code to your TypeScript code. While we actively work to make the compiled Luau code as readable as possible, this does still introduce a bit of complexity. When you use the Roblox Studio debugger (or when you encounter an error), you will see the compiled Luau code instead of TypeScript code. The biggest downside to using roblox-ts is debugging. roblox-ts supports TypeScript transformer plugins which allow you to modify the behavior of the compiler itself! You can also write your own ESLint plugins to enforce certain rules on your code. Roblox-ts, TypeScript, and most of the related tooling is open source! This means you can hack it, tweak it, and customize it to your liking. TypeScript's typing system allows you to clearly describe what each function expects as inputs and gives back as an output. Static types and intellisense allow you and your IDE to understand what your code is doing on a deeper level without having to mentally track what's going on. Roblox-ts is great for managing large scale projects. Use industry standard tools for linting and formatting like ESLint and Prettier.Use VSCode's intellisense, autocompletion, and type checking abilities.Infers the structure of your game using your Rojo configuration file.Automatically generated type definitions for the Roblox API.Automatic project structure setup for creating games, models, plugins, and packages.Write TypeScript code, run it in Roblox.Typings for the Roblox API are partially handwritten and partially automatically generated from the Roblox API dump and Developer Hub documentation. lua) which are paired with TypeScript type definition files (. Roblox-ts works with both TypeScript files (. TeamSpeaks permission system is powerful, but actually too powerful for the average user. The rights management of Discord is also very straightforward which is actually an advantage.
This includes intellisense, IDE extensions, linters, code formatters, and more! It allows you to write TypeScript code that is then compiled into Luau code for use inside of Roblox. The rights management of Discord is very limited. In short, roblox-ts is a way to use the tooling and ecosystem surrounding TypeScript for Roblox development.
