Maximilian: Up to this point in the course,
we mostly worked with individual TypeScript files
and a fairly limited number of TypeScript files.
So therefore, of course, if you wanted to compile them
to JavaScript in order to execute them,
you could just do that by using the TSC command
and targeting those individual files.
It's not too much effort.
But of course, the bigger your projects get
and the more source code files they contain,
the more annoying it would be to individually compile files.
And you also might wanna configure
how these files are compiled
and which rules TypeScript follows,
because it turns out you can configure how TypeScript
and its compiler behaves, and your IDE, your code editor
or most code editors, will actually pick up
that configuration and make sure that they show errors
according to that configuration.
Therefore, in this section here, we'll explore
how you can manage projects with TypeScript,
and most importantly, how you can configure
how TypeScript behaves, how type checking works,
and how the code gets compiled.
