LDoc

This program uses LDoc type annotations for type information that is used in generated TypeScript code.

--- @tparam number a
--- @treturn number
local function f(a)
  return a
end

return a

Loosely translates to the below code. Note the type annotations.

function f(a: number): number {
  return a;
}

export = f;
