Embed TypeScript code in an HTML document

Question

Is it possible to embed TypeScript code in a web page? I want to embed TypeScript code inside script tags, like this (so that it is automatically compiled to Javascript):

<script type = "text/typescript">
    //TypeScript code goes here
</script>

Answer 1

Actually there are several projects that allow you to use TypeScript code like that - TypeScript Compile, ts-htaccess.

The catch here is that .ts code should be compiled into JavaScript - it can be done either at client-side (slow; the whole TSC should be loaded into the client as well) or at server-side (obviously faster, and it's far easier to leverage the cache on the compiled code).
