✨ dtsx is a fast new DTS emitter for TypeScript. It leverages tsconfig "isolatedDeclarations" to ensure that source code is sufficiently annotated with types.

Today, I'm releasing a TypeScript compiler called ts-blank-space 🎈 We use this at @TechAtBloomberg to perform type-stripping on a modern subset of TypeScript. It's written in TypeScript and is fast because it uses whitespace to enable work-skipping. bloomberg.github.io/ts-blank-space
