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.

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