Using Node 6 I followed your instructions exactly and get this error:

Error: Cannot find module '/home/andy/dev/colyseus-examples/index.js' at Function.Module._resolveFilename (module.js:469:15) at Function.Module._load (module.js:417:25) at Module.runMain (module.js:604:10) at run (bootstrap_node.js:383:7) at startup (bootstrap_node.js:149:9) at bootstrap_node.js:496:3

It seems like the index.ts file is never being compiled to index.js -- is that the issue? I dont see any use of webpack or anything so how would this even be done anyways ?

Hey @admazzola, thanks for reporting. I've just updated the npm task to use ts-node instead of node for development purposes. On production, it's not recommended to use ts-node though.

Cheers!

This repository demonstrates mostly how the backend should look like.

For the frontend, you may use different libraries such as PIXI / THREE.js / Babylon, etc, and each one of them can have its own particularities when it comes to the webpack config. I'm not sure this should live on this repository.
