history

Project history and usage

tygo is a Go code generator that produces TypeScript types from Go source packages.

Project history

The official GitHub repository was created in March 2022. Its README documents generation of TypeScript interfaces, enums or unions, generic types, embedded fields, and YAML-aware typings from Go declarations.

Adoption history

The official README documents installation with `go install`, while source_facts.package-manager records Homebrew and Nix packages, giving the tool both native Go and system-package distribution paths.

How it is used

Users create `tygo.yaml` in a project, list Go packages and type mappings, then run `tygo generate`; library users can also construct a Config and invoke the generator from Go code.

Why package nerds care

tygo bridges Go and TypeScript in mixed-language projects while remaining a single CLI installable through the Go toolchain or system package managers.

Timeline

2022-03-02: Official GitHub repository created.
Current: Official README documents `go install` and tygo.yaml-driven generation.
2026: source_facts.package-manager records Homebrew and Nix packages.

Related projects

The Go toolchain supplies source-package loading and the upstream installation route.
TypeScript is the generated target language.

Recommended review

Before unattended agent use, check whether the tool reads plaintext credentials, writes remote state, publishes artifacts, or shells out to plugins.

local files

Configuration and credential file locations

These source-backed paths show where this package keeps local settings or durable credentials. Automic Vault can use them as review targets for secret scanning, migration, and command approval.

Configuration files
