Note that no run configuration is required for launching applications with injected TypeScript from PhpStorm.

  1. Compile the TypeScript code into Javascript.
  2. In the editor, open the HTML file with the TypeScript reference. This HTML file does not necessarily have to be the one that implements the starting page of the application.
  3. Do one of the following:
    • Choose View | Open in Browser on the main menu or press Alt+F2. Then select the desired browser from the pop-up menu.
    • Hover your mouse pointer over the code to show the browser icons bar: browserIcons Click the icon that indicates the desired browser.
