@template tag for declaring type parameters (#23511)
* Support @template as a class type parameter Still need to do the following: 1. Correctly get jsdoc host in predicate. 2. Make this work for constructor functions too. 3. Scan rest of codebase for other usages of the type parameters property that should be calls to getEffectiveTypeParameterDeclarations. 4. Rename tp to something more readable, like typar or ts'. * Use jsdoc host declaration to find container * Longer names for type parameters * Fix renaming operation * Update fourslash test * Support @template for JS constructors * Look for both outer and tag type parameters * Improve naming to improve code clarity
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.

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
