How to debug typescript code alone without converting into JavaScript

1. Create the folder. Go inside the folder. Go to the terminal or command prompt.
2. Run npm init --yes that will create default setting for your typescript app.
3. Run npm i -D typescript this will install the typescript in your project without installing globally in your computer.
4. Run npx tsc --version to check the typescript.
5. Run npx tsc --init to create the 'tsconfig.json' file with default option.
6. Add the "lib": ["ES6", "DOM"], in 'tsconfig.json'. if you won't add "ES6" then you might get an error "Cannot find global type 'Array'."
7. Run npm i -D ts-node.
8. Now add the "singly-linked-list.ts" and "linked-list.ts" file inside the 'src/' folder.
9. Run the command npx ts-node ./src/linked-list.ts you will see the result in console.
10. Now if we want to debug same code just add the launch.json in .vscode/ folder.
