ALM is a browser-based IDE built specifically for TypeScript development, installable via a single npm command and served locally. It offers TypeScript-aware editing features like live compilation, linting, AST viewing, and git integration, running in Chrome. The project is now archived.

Use cases

  • edit typescript code in a browser-based ide
  • set up a lightweight typescript development environment with one npm install
  • view typescript ast and dependency graphs while coding
  • live preview compiled javascript from typescript
  • develop typescript on low-power devices like raspberry pi
  • lint typescript projects as i type

When to choose

  • you want a zero-config, npm-installable IDE dedicated to TypeScript
  • you prefer editing in Chrome with live compile and lint feedback
  • you're on a lightweight machine like a Raspberry Pi and need a responsive editor

When to avoid

  • you need an actively maintained tool - the project is archived since 2022
  • you need multi-language support beyond TypeScript
  • you require a full-featured desktop IDE with debugging and plugin ecosystems
