Template project for making a JS13K entry using TypeScript, Grunt, and minified using the Closure Compiler (which now supports fully-compressed ES6 output!)

It uses old-school AMD style, which means everything is global. No imports, use \\\<reference path="lib.ts"> in the order you want them imported (ideally just do this once in index.ts) instead. Or change the module type, whatever suits you, but I believe AMD produces the smallest code.

To set up

1. install NPM https://www.npmjs.com/get-npm
2. install Grunt CLI npm install -g grunt-cli
3. in the project folder type npm install

To run up the devekopment environment

1. type grunt
2. go to http://localhost:8000/ (and open the developer tools/console)
3. Any changes to the code/html/css should be automatically reloaded

To do a build to submit

1. type grunt dist
2. go to http://localhost:8000/dist to check it still works
3. compress (just) dist/index.html manually using advzip https://www.advancemame.it/comp-readme.html
4. submit!

NOTE: You might want to check that the substitutions in the Gruntfile.js replace task match what you want to have trimmed out of your HTML
