How do you execute a script in Typescript?

I\'ve been doing a ton of curriculum development recently, and it\'s always funny to stumble across something common where there\'s no good references.

It\'s dead simple, but if you didn\'t know, it wouldn\'t be obvious. I whipped up a quick post this evening that shows how to do it in a couple of steps.

Bonus: there\'s boilerplate at the end if you\'re feeling really lazy!

In most interviews, I\'ve been posed with a question that goes a bit like this:

"Tell me about yourself, how\'d you end up in tech?"

I was doing some thinking today and before I knew it I was scribbling down my thoughts. So here it is, my origin story.

Breaking into Tech as a 19-Year-Old Dropout

Have you ever, or known someone who has, struggled to wrap your head around React providers?

I\'ve written a bit of a guide to spinning one up in a clean and scalable way. I call it the "good enough" React provider, a throwback to a joke my brother and I made about needing a resource to point people to for code that\'s good enough for prod. Feel free to give it a read!

The "Good Enough" React Provider

We\'re #hiring a new Forward Deployed Engineer (Junior Software Engineer) in New York City Metropolitan Area. Apply today or share this post with your network.

For the last year or so I\'ve been ❗️ really ❗️ excited about all of the new things you can build with AI. But when I jumped into using frameworks like Langchain and Vellum to deal with more complicated use cases, I ran into issue after issue. 

Unfortunately, the developer experience is so bad with these tools that many people (including myself) fall back to simple use cases, or give up on a project or product altogether.

At a recent GenAI event I hosted, over 70% of people said that they have used Langchain and didn\'t like it. 

So today we\'re launching Forge - the fastest and easiest way to build bulletproof AI products.

Forge is a developer toolkit built on guaranteed structured output. AI products have a reliability problem, and we solve most issues in a single line of code. Developers should be able to build production-grade AI integrations in minutes, not unreliable prototypes after days.

Here\'s some of the other features in Forge:
🤖 OpenAI + Anthropic Provider Support
⚙️ Fully typesafe Typescript SDK, auto-generated from your zod schemas
🏞️ Structured extraction directly from images
✍️ AI-powered schema creation and editing 
🕹️ "Mini-prompts" on each key to increase control and optimize responses
📑 Auto-generated documentation for your schemas
🤟 Easy structured data in any language (Go, Rust, PHP) via deployed structured endpoints
💵 Optional caching and cache-management for repeat queries (don\'t burn tokens on repeat extractions)
🛜 Easily integrate Forge with https://lsd.so to access realtime data on the internet

Check out Forge here: https://forge-ml.com/

If you\'re building AI products and you\'re frustrated with the current options - reach out to me at jake@forge-ml.com! We want to build for you.
