02/28/2019, 9:22 PMJust out of curiosity Kris, what does this allow in Typescript? I am not too familiar with Angular JS but considering a project to develop a custom Production Planning tool for our Production facility. Does this package allow developing Netsuite scripts in Typescript or in Angular? Why would a developer consider using this?

02/28/2019, 10:24 PMThis package basically defines the SS2.0 API in TypeScript so you get compile time warnings for API mistakes and amazing Intellisense (autocomplete). The advantages in general to using TypeScript is static typing (catch errors at compile time instead of run time) and in NetSuite you get the benefit of being able to use ES6+ syntax

02/28/2019, 10:53 PMI originally liked WebStorm bc I could have other language framework/library syntax and run nodejs right in the IDE but its changing pretty fast

02/28/2019, 10:58 PMhmm, ok, yeah even in VSCode I don't get the option parameter hinting

Copy code
createForm(options: ui.CreateAssistantOptions): ui.Form

02/28/2019, 11:59 PM@michoel hmm I just tried loading up webstorm and it has the same issue - you sure there wasn't some sort of config you enabled to display option parameters?

03/01/2019, 2:22 AMwow! Thank you guys! I need to move over to webstorm and use this! This is so much better than me opening up 25 browser windows to reference the API all the time. 🙈
