javascript - TypeScript - possible to disable type checking?

Question

Is it possible to disable type checking when using TypeScript? I love TypeScript for classes, interface etc yet for the smaller one person projects I am normally engaged in I really don't need type checking and the pain of not finding ready made type definitions for less common libraries or the latest version of it is a pain. Thanks

Answer 1

In TypeScript 3.7, type checking will be disabled on a file if it starts with the following comment:

// @ts-nocheck

As already mentioned, in previous versions you can disable checking on a single line by including the following comment on the previous line:

// @ts-ignore
