How to use with Typescript?

[klavul]

I've ran default dape-node config on hello world typescript file and got this error in dape-repl.

Debug server listening at ::1:42445
/usr/bin/node helloworld.ts
Uncaught SyntaxError /home/qeqpep/s/typescript-hello-world/helloworld.ts:1
let message: string = 'Hello World';
           ^

What do I need to make it work?

Hey, I needed to do some digging to figure this one out.

One way to do it is to install "ts-node" npm install --global ts-node

Then

Should probably add that as an default configuration

New batteris included on master `js-debug-ts-node' which makes the discoverability of typescript debugging a bit easier.
