We arrived at the following themes for May:

Should be June. =)

TypeScript/JavaScript - Explore project level errors/warnings

Is this just "give tslint etc. the folder name instead of the file name", as opposed to VS Code actually keeping track of errors/warnings during an "indexing" process (where each file is processed separately)?

[egamma]

@glen-84 thanks for catching the typo.

Is this just "give tslint etc. the folder name instead of the file name", as opposed to VS Code actually keeping track of errors/warnings during an "indexing" process (where each file is processed separately)?

This is an investigation to add scalable project level errors to the typescript language service and tsServer. This is independent of tslint.

[niieani]

Fantastic job guys. Honestly, you're developing faster than a lightning! Thanks a lot for making the best IDE out there.

🏆 🎆 💃
