Add TypeScript support

It would be great to have a langage selector with TypeScript support :

  • Javascript
  • CoffeeScript
  • TypeScript

If someone can write both generators with Typescript support I'll be happy to accept

I am thinking of doing this, but can't promise anything for the next month.

Also, I'd like to ask if it would be acceptable if the option asked to add tsd. tl;dr this is a cli that installs typings - files that help with typescript completions.

Sounds good @markogresak. I don't know anything about Typescript to be honest but tsd looks pretty popular so don't see why not adding it as an option if you pass in --typescript

Any news about that?

Uh, completely forgot about this. I did some work in #127, but it's been sitting there for almost a year and a half now. I am not actively using TypeScript anymore and I'd imagine a lot has changed since, so it's probably not a viable option anymore. Sorry.

You can still check it and see how it works, but my guess is it's going to be very outdated.

Very good start! It could be a good inspiration for anyone wanting to work on it.

Since this time, TypeScript (now 2.1) has been very popular with the release of Angular 2.
