Decorators are an experimental feature of TypeScript and, to an extent, of JavaScript itself. They are a concept borrowed from Python, and a way to modify classes using higher order functionality.
The idea is that you pass the class/function/attribute through a function and the result becomes the class/function/attribute.
As an example, if you make a @final decorator and have the code…
When programming in TypeScript, you may need to use existing JavaScript modules. This should be a lot easier than it is. You should be able to just use a require and pass a flag in to let the compiler know that it’s a js library in order to convert it to an Any, however that is not possible.
What actually needs to be done is the creation of a .d.ts file. This file (or files) declares the shape of the module. This includes any functions or interfaces that might be needed used when using the class.
