Hi,

I am trying to figure out how to setup Typescript in my VS CRM project. I have not seen anything explaining the best practice. Would some one please let me what is the best direction to go.

Here's my questions:

1) What's Nuget should I use

2) Once setting up the Nuget. How does the js and ts file get deployed into CRM

3) I use XrmToolBox. Is good practice to use the XrmToolBox Typescript for the entities.

My project looks like this

I used to following 2 video to setup my vs solution to use TypeScript.

I installed the following 2 nugets

1) TypeScript.DefinitelyTyped

2) Spkl

My vs folder now looks like this. I am using the Spkl to do the deploying for typescript.

Some setup that I had to :

Execute the deploy-webresources.bat to do the deploy the webresources
