A simple React component to show live Typescript code samples.

• TypesScript hinting and error checking using the Monaco editor from VS Code.
• Your example code is vanilla Typescript.
• Example code can import local packages (not just public packages on npm).
• Live preview, isolated in an iframe.
• Instant refresh, transpiles with sucrase.
• Docusaurus compatible.

Examples

Here's a simple example:

  <LiveTypescript code="console.log('hello world');"/>

To import modules in your example code, use the provided plugin in a vite or rollup build: rollup-plugin-sourcefiles.

  import pkgSource from "thimbleberry?sourceFiles";

  <LiveTypescript embeddedPackages={[pkgSource]}
      code="
        import { mapN } from 'thimbleberry';

        const seq = mapN(10).join(' ');
        document.body.innerHTML = `<div> ${seq} </div>`;
      "
    > </LiveTypescript>

Here's a complete example using vite.

Docusaurus

LiveTypescript works well in Docusaurus.

The recommended approach is to build (and test) your code examples in a separate vite/rollup package build, and then import the examples package into your documentation build.

Consider wrapping your LiveTypescript component in <BrowserOnly>. The current sandboxed execution doesn't run on the server anyway, and server side rendering can lead to developer console warnings at runtime.
