 AVA comes bundled with a TypeScript definition file. This allows developers to leverage TypeScript for writing tests.
 
-Out of the box AVA does not load TypeScript test files, however. Rudimentary support is available via the [`@ava/typescript`] package. You can also use AVA with [`ts-node`]. Read on for details.

 This guide assumes you've already set up TypeScript for your project. Note that AVA's definition expects at least version 3.7.5.

+## Enabling AVA's support for TypeScript test files

+Out of the box AVA does not load TypeScript test files. You can use our [`@ava/typescript`] package, which is designed to work for projects that precompile TypeScript using the `tsc` command. Please see [`@ava/typescript`] for setup instructions.
+
+### Using `ts-node`
+
+You can use [`ts-node`] to do live testing without transpiling to js files.  This can be especially helpful when you're using a bundler.
+
+`npm i --save-dev typescript ts-node`

+It's worth noting that with this configuration tests will fail if there are TypeScript build errors. If you want to test while ignoring these errors you can use `ts-node/register/transpile-only` instead of `ts-node/register`.

 ### Using module path mapping
 
 `ts-node` [does not support module path mapping](https://github.com/TypeStrong/ts-node/issues/138), however you can use [`tsconfig-paths`](https://github.com/dividab/tsconfig-paths#readme).
