* Integrate importStar and importDefault helpers * Accept baselines * Support dynamic imports, write helpers for umd module (and amd is possible) kinds * Accept baselines * Support AMD, use same helper initialization as is normal * update typechecker to have errors on called imported namespaces and good error recovery with a quickfix * Overhaul allowSyntheticDefaultExports to be safer * Put the new behavior behind a flag * Rename strictESM to ESMInterop * ESMInterop -> ESModuleInterop, make default for tsc --init * Rename ESMInterop -> ESModuleInterop in module.ts, add emit test (since fourslash doesnt do that) * Remove erroneous semicolons from helper * Reword diagnostic * Change style * Edit followup diagnostic * Add secondary quickfix for call sites, tests forthcoming * Add synth default to namespace import type, enhance quickfix * Pair of spare tests for good measure * Fix typos in diagnostic message * Improve comment clarity * Actually accept the updated changes to the esmodule interop description * ESModule -> esModule * Use find and not forEach * Use guard * Rely on implicit falsiness of Result.False * These should have been emit flags
TypeScript
TypeScript is a language for application-scale JavaScript. TypeScript adds optional types, classes, and modules to JavaScript. TypeScript supports tools for large-scale JavaScript applications for any browser, for any host, on any OS. TypeScript compiles to readable, standards-based JavaScript. Try it out at the playground, and stay up to date via our blog and Twitter account.
Installing

Documentation
Building
In order to build the TypeScript compiler, ensure that you have Git and Node.js installed.
Clone a copy of the repo:
git clone https://github.com/Microsoft/TypeScript.git
Change to the TypeScript directory:
cd TypeScript
Install Gulp tools and dev dependencies:
npm install -g gulp
npm install
Use one of the following to build and test:
gulp local # Build the compiler into built/local
gulp clean # Delete the built compiler
gulp LKG # Replace the last known good with the built one.
# Bootstrapping step to be executed when the built compiler reaches a stable state.
gulp tests # Build the test infrastructure using the built compiler.
gulp runtests # Run tests using the built compiler and test infrastructure.
# You can override the host or specify a test for this command.
# Use host=<hostName> or tests=<testPath>.
gulp runtests-browser # Runs the tests using the built run.js file. Syntax is gulp runtests. Optional
parameters 'host=', 'tests=[regex], reporter=[list|spec|json|<more>]'.
gulp baseline-accept # This replaces the baseline test results with the results obtained from gulp runtests.
gulp lint # Runs tslint on the TypeScript source.
gulp help # List the above commands.
Usage
node built/local/tsc.js hello.ts
