While GitHub automatically uses this file if present, GitLens in VS Code does not. Add the right option to our example settings.json for those who use the extension. Unfortunately, you can't leave this enabled if you want to look at the repo _without_ the file; git blame just crashes when the file isn't present. I'm not sure that there's a workaround for that.
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.
