This template creates a NativeScript app with the NativeScript hello world example, however, in this template the example is built with TypeScript.

You can create a new app that uses this template with either the --template option.

tns create my-app-name --template tns-template-hello-world-ts

Or the --tsc shorthand.

tns create my-app-name --tsc

Note: Both commands will create a new NativeScript app that uses the latest version of this template published to [npm] (https://www.npmjs.com/package/tns-template-hello-world-ts).

If you want to create a new app that uses the source of the template from the master branch, you can execute the following:

tns create my-app-name --template https://github.com/NativeScript/template-hello-world-ts.git#master
