Pull Request Overview
This PR updates the starter kit to use Fastly's built-in TypeScript support instead of requiring a separate TypeScript compilation step. The key change is feeding TypeScript source files directly to the js-compute-runtime compiler while using tsc only for type checking.
- Updates build process to feed
index.tsdirectly to js-compute-runtime instead of compiling to JS first - Changes TypeScript usage to type-checking only mode with
tsc --noEmit - Updates documentation to reflect the new TypeScript workflow
