Unlike our other exectuables, tsserver is used in web, which means that there actually would have been a "ts" variable declared for those users (e.g. in a web worker). It looks like VS Code needs this variable to be declared, so change this bundle to look the same as other libraries. Note that in Node, the IIFE will never actually return, so this can have no effect. On web, it will return in order to yield control back to the event loop (as on web, postMessage is used to communicate).
TypeScript
TypeScript is a language for application-scale JavaScript. TypeScript adds optional types to JavaScript that support 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.
