`@tsonic/express`

@tsonic/express is the canonical Express-style package for Tsonic.

Current position

This package replaces the older public multi-repo packaging story that used to describe Express through more than one public layer.

The active documentation model is simple:

@tsonic/express is the package users depend on
it is a first-party tsonic-source-package
it lives alongside @tsonic/js and @tsonic/nodejs

Quick start

tsonic init --surface @tsonic/js
tsonic add npm @tsonic/nodejs
tsonic add npm @tsonic/express
tsonic run

import { express } from "@tsonic/express/index.js";

export async function main(): Promise<void> {
  const app = express.create();
  app.get("/health", async (_req, res, _next) => {
    res.json({ ok: true });
  });
  app.listen(3000, "127.0.0.1");
}
