Tsconfig Generator

A strict TypeScript config — the one setting worth getting right on day one.

  • Free
  • No signup
  • Nothing uploaded
  • No watermark
`strict` is on. Turning it off later is easy; turning it on in a large codebase never happens, which is why it is the one setting worth getting right on day one.
tsconfig.json
{
  "compilerOptions": {
    "target": "ES2022",
    "module": "ESNext",
    "moduleResolution": "Bundler",
    "lib": [
      "ES2022",
      "DOM",
      "DOM.Iterable"
    ],
    "strict": true,
    "noUncheckedIndexedAccess": true,
    "esModuleInterop": true,
    "skipLibCheck": true,
    "forceConsistentCasingInFileNames": true,
    "resolveJsonModule": true,
    "isolatedModules": true,
    "noEmit": true,
    "baseUrl": ".",
    "paths": {
      "@/*": [
        "src/*"
      ]
    }
  },
  "include": [
    "src"
  ],
  "exclude": [
    "node_modules",
    "dist"
  ]
}
Save it as tsconfig.json in your project. The file is built in your browser, so nothing about your project is sent anywhere.

Why Use Web Development Tools in the Browser?

Small web jobs like minifying CSS, checking HTML, escaping a string or writing a Dockerfile rarely deserve a new install. These tools do each one in a tab, and your code is never sent to a server.

“The fastest tool is the one already open in a tab.”
  • Code checked for errors
  • Messy code made readable
  • Number bases converted
  • Selectors and paths tested
  • Minified files for faster pages
  • Config files from templates
  • CI workflows drafted quickly
  • Source code stays private

Popular Uses for Developer Utilities

These are the small tasks that interrupt a day of web work.

  • Minifying assets Shrink CSS or JSON before deploying, then beautify it again to read.
  • Validating markup Catch unclosed tags and syntax errors in HTML, CSS or JavaScript before publishing.
  • Docker setups Draft a Dockerfile, Docker Compose file or .dockerignore for a new project.
  • CI pipelines Generate a GitHub Actions or GitLab CI workflow and adjust it to fit.
  • Number conversions Convert between binary, decimal, hex and octal while reading low-level data.
  • Selector testing Try a CSS selector or JSONPath expression against sample input and see matches.
  • Data URIs Turn a small image into a data URI to embed directly in CSS.
  • Project files Create .gitignore, EditorConfig and CODEOWNERS files without copying them from old repos.

What You Can Do with the Tsconfig Generator

Ships the safe defaults, with a note on why each one matters

Options are explained rather than listed, so the file is understood before it is committed

Generates a valid file for the tool’s current schema, not a version that has since changed

Best Times to Validate or Minify Code

Keep these open in a tab when you are:

  • Starting a new repository
  • Preparing a site for launch

Frequently Asked Questions

Answers to common questions about this tool.

Do I need to install anything to use the Tsconfig Generator?

No. Tsconfig Generator runs entirely in your browser — there is nothing to download, no extension and no desktop program. It works the same on Windows, macOS, Linux, Android and iPhone.

Is it safe to use the Tsconfig Generator online?

Safer than the usual alternative, yes. Most online tools upload your file to a server you know nothing about, where it sits until someone deletes it. Here the file never leaves your device — the processing happens in the page itself, so there is no server copy to leak, retain or sell.

Is my code sent to a server when I use Tsconfig Generator?

No. Your code is processed in the browser tab, so private repositories, keys in config files and client work stay on your machine. It also means the tool works on locked-down work laptops where installing software is not allowed.

Will minifying break my code?

Minifying removes spaces, comments and line breaks without changing what the code does. Keep an unminified copy for editing, and test the minified version before deploying it.

Are the generated config files ready to use?

They give you a sound starting point based on common settings. Every project is different, so read through the file and adjust paths, versions and secrets before committing it.

Is Tsconfig Generator free with no account?

Yes. There is no login, API key or usage cap. Open the page whenever you need it, even on a machine that is not your own.

Does Tsconfig Generator follow current web standards?

The validators and generators follow current web standards and common tool conventions. Standards keep moving, so for edge cases check MDN or the official specification listed in further reading.
