Develop Node.js based applications in TypeScript. Includes Node.js, eslint, nvm, yarn, and the TypeScript compiler.

You can directly reference pre-built versions of Dockerfile by using the image property in .devcontainer/devcontainer.json or updating the FROM statement in your own Dockerfile to one of the following. An example Dockerfile is included in this repository.

• mcr.microsoft.com/devcontainers/typescript-node (latest)
• mcr.microsoft.com/devcontainers/typescript-node:26 (or 26-trixie, 26-bookworm to pin to an OS version)
• mcr.microsoft.com/devcontainers/typescript-node:24 (or 24-trixie, 24-bookworm to pin to an OS version)
• mcr.microsoft.com/devcontainers/typescript-node:22 (or 22-trixie, 22-bookworm to pin to an OS version)

Refer to this guide for more details.

We publish stable releases and experimental development images (dev-*, which contain the latest available changes from main). Latest stable: mcr.microsoft.com/devcontainers/typescript-node:latest (MCR). Other stable releases can be found at: MCR Tags. Development images use the dev- prefix, for example mcr.microsoft.com/devcontainers/typescript-node:dev-26, and may be updated in place; pin the image for reproducibility.

The examples below demonstrate stable image semantic versioning; see the links above for current tags.

• mcr.microsoft.com/devcontainers/typescript-node:5-26 (or 5-26-trixie, 5-26-bookworm)
• mcr.microsoft.com/devcontainers/typescript-node:5.2-26 (or 5.2-26-trixie, 5.2-26-bookworm)
• mcr.microsoft.com/devcontainers/typescript-node:5.2.5-26 (or 5.2.5-26-trixie, 5.2.5-26-bookworm)

However, we only do security patching on the latest non-breaking, in support versions of images (e.g. 5-26). You may want to run apt-get update && apt-get upgrade in your Dockerfile if you lock to a more specific version to at least pick up OS security updates.

Beyond TypeScript, Node.js, and git, this image / Dockerfile includes eslint, zsh, Oh My Zsh!, a non-root node user with sudo access, and a set of common dependencies for development. Since tslint is now fully deprecated, the image includes tslint-to-eslint-config globally to help you migrate.

Note that, while eslintand typescript are installed globally for convenience, as of ESLint 6, you will need to install the following packages locally to lint TypeScript code: @typescript-eslint/eslint-plugin, @typescript-eslint/parser, eslint, typescript.
