Blockchain In TypeScript

TypeScript developed by Microsoft is an open source next generation programming library based on JavaScript and C#. TypeScript is is a superset of JavaScript which mainly offers optional static typing, classes, and interfaces.

ARK Blockchain provides a wrapper for TypeScript developers to build blockchain solutions in TypeScript on top of Ark Blockchain.

TSARK is available on Github: https://github.com/ArkEcosystem/ark-ts
