The first client we will build is a TypeScript client. This application is just a normal HTML page that uses the SignalR JavaScript client library to communicate with the SignalR hub. TypeScript is a superset of JavaScript that provides static typing and other features to help developers write better JavaScript code. TypeScript code is compiled into JavaScript code, so it can run in any JavaScript runtime, such as browsers and Node.js. To learn more about TypeScript, you can visit the...
