A Webpack plugin that runs TypeScript type checking in a separate worker process to speed up builds. It supports project references, incremental mode, and nice code-frame error messages.

Use cases

• speed up webpack builds with typescript type checking
• run tsc type checker in a separate process during webpack build
• type check typescript without blocking webpack compilation
• add typescript checking to ts-loader webpack setup
• check typescript project references incrementally in webpack
• show pretty typescript errors with code frames in webpack

When to choose

• you use webpack 5 with ts-loader or babel-loader and want faster type checking
• your webpack builds are slowed down by synchronous TypeScript checking
• you want incremental TypeScript checking with project references support

When to avoid

• you use webpack 4 or older TypeScript (use plugin version 6 instead)
• you need Vue.js support (use version 6)
• you don't use webpack as your bundler
