How we deploy Node JS apps with TS

[high elbow]

For client side apps, we transpile ts and then minified file to save bandwidth.

How we deploy node js app in production?

"scripts": {
    "test": "jest --watchAll --no-cache",
    "start": "ts-node-dev --poll src/index.ts",
    "test:ci": "jest"
  },

or

"scripts": {
    "test": "echo \"Error: no test specified\" && exit 1",
    "start": "tsc && node ./dist/index.js",
    "dev": "ts-node-dev src/index.ts"
  },

What is standard to run node js apps? Is it not required to minified JS files on server?

yes, you don't need to minify because the server only starts once

so really the main difference between ts-node and tsc + regular node is startup time, i think
