How can I pass multiple source files to the TypeScript compiler?

Question

TypeScript is designed for large-scale JavaScripty projects which typically consist of multiple internally produced files along with externally produced libraries. How does

Answer 1

tsc can compile multiple sources in sequence if you just give the names in order:

tsc foo.ts bar.ts

You can also pass a text file containing a list of files and command line arguments from a text file using the @ command line argument.

tsc @compile.txt

and the compile.txt could look like this:

--module amd
foo.ts
bar.ts

Also note that if on file references another via an import, tsc will automatically figure that out without you having to explicitly list the file that it depends on.
