Syntax file and other settings for TypeScript. The syntax file is taken from this blog post.

The simplest way to install is via a Vim add-in manager such as Plug, Vundle or Pathogen.
If you want to install manually then you need to copy the files from this
repository into your vim path, see the vim docs for :help
runtimepath
for more information. This might be as simple as copying the files and
directories to ~/.vim/ but it depends on your Vim install and operating
system.
Once the files are installed the syntax highlighting and other settings will be
automatically enabled anytime you edit a .ts file.
This plugin includes a custom indenter (based on indent/java.vim), it works
pretty well but there are cases where it fails. If these bother you or want to
use other indent settings you can disable it by setting a flag in your
.vimrc:
let g:typescript_indent_disable = 1The compiler settings enable you to call the tsc compiler directly from Vim
and display any errors or warnings in Vim's QuickFix window.
To run the compiler, enter :make, this will run tsc against the last saved
version of your currently edited file.
You can add compiler options by modifying the compiler options variable.
let g:typescript_compiler_options = '-sourcemap'Note, you can use something like this in your .vimrc to make the QuickFix
window automatically appear if :make has any errors.
