This is a template project for a faster start on a NodeJS Typescript project using Jest to test. Code samples, vscode launch configs, example tests etc are included.

1. Clone/fork repo
2. npm install
3. package.json - replace all TODO with relevant info
4. __tests__/ - add your tests
5. index.ts - add your code
6. delete irrelevant examples (src/core/, src/utils/, config/)
7. Run/Test: npm start / npm test! (Or with vscode launch configs)
