+# TypeScript Setup for Talk2Me
+
+This project now includes TypeScript support for better type safety and developer experience.
+
+## Installation
+
+1. Install Node.js dependencies:
+```bash
+npm install
+```
+
+2. Build TypeScript files:
+```bash
+npm run build
+```
+
+## Development
+
+For development with automatic recompilation:
+```bash
+npm run watch
+# or
+npm run dev
+```
+
+## Project Structure
+
+- `/static/js/src/` - TypeScript source files
+  - `app.ts` - Main application logic
+  - `types.ts` - Type definitions
+- `/static/js/dist/` - Compiled JavaScript files (git-ignored)
+- `tsconfig.json` - TypeScript configuration
+- `package.json` - Node.js dependencies and scripts
+
+## Available Scripts
+
+- `npm run build` - Compile TypeScript to JavaScript
+- `npm run watch` - Watch for changes and recompile
+- `npm run dev` - Same as watch
+- `npm run clean` - Remove compiled files
+- `npm run type-check` - Type-check without compiling
+
+## Type Safety Benefits
+
+The TypeScript implementation provides:
+- Compile-time type checking
+- Better IDE support with autocomplete
+- Explicit interface definitions for API responses
+- Safer refactoring
+- Self-documenting code
+
+## Next Steps
+
+After building, the compiled JavaScript will be in `/static/js/dist/app.js` and will be automatically loaded by the HTML template.
