rustdoc: add nobuild typescript checking to our JS by notriddle · Pull Request #136161 · rust-lang/rust (original) (raw)

By nobuild, I mean that the type annotations are all in comments, not in the "native" typescript syntax. This is a bit uglier, but it lets you rapid-prototype without tsc, works with all the native browser debugging tools, and keeps Node out of Rust's bootstrap chain.

This pull request mostly just adds ts-ignore annotations and type declarations. To actually take good advantage of typescript, we'll want to "burn down" this pile of unsafe code until we eventually have a version with almost none of these.

This PR also adds tsc to the mingw-check Dockerfile, so that it can't fall out of date like the Closure annotations did.
