# How to upgrade TypeScript. The files in this directory are mostly from the TypeScript repository. We currently (unfortunately) have a rather manual process for upgrading TypeScript. It works like this currently: 1. Checkout typescript repo in a separate directory. 2. Copy typescript.js into Deno repo. 3. Copy d.ts files into dts directory. So that might look something like this: ``` git clone https://github.com/microsoft/TypeScript.git cd typescript git checkout v3.9.7 rsync lib/typescript.js ~/src/deno/cli/tsc/00_typescript.js rsync --exclude=protocol.d.ts --exclude=tsserverlibrary.d.ts --exclude=typescriptServices.d.ts lib/*.d.ts ~/src/deno/cli/dts/ ```
