Error: timerStopf
instead of timerStop
File: frontend/chatterApp.js

Fix: Changed stopTimer as timerStopf
to stopTimer as timerStop
Error: coreEnsureMessagePersisted
and coreSendMessage
not exported
Fix:
- Replaced
coreEnsureMessagePersisted
withcorePersistMessageAtIndex
- Inlined the legacy
coreSendMessage
implementation directly insendMessage()
Error: Browser can't parse export type { ... }
File: frontend/core/index.ts
Fix: Removed export type { AppState, DexieDatabase }
line
Error: Server serving .ts
files as text/plain
instead of application/javascript
File: backend/routes/static.js
Fix: Added TypeScript transpilation using Deno's emit
module
if (rel.endsWith('.ts')) {
const { transpile } = await import('https://deno.land/x/emit@0.31.0/mod.ts');
const result = await transpile(new URL(`file://${Deno.cwd()}/${rel}`));
body = result.get(new URL(`file://${Deno.cwd()}/${rel}`).href) || body;
contentType = 'application/javascript; charset=utf-8';
}
Error: Functions declared twice in types.ts
Fix: Removed duplicate declarations:

Browsers only understand JavaScript, not TypeScript. TypeScript features like:
import type { ... }
- Type-only importsinterface
declarationstype
aliases- Type annotations (
: string
,: number
, etc.) export type
All of these cause syntax errors in browsers.
The server now transpiles TypeScript to JavaScript on-the-fly:
- Browser requests
.ts
file - Server reads the TypeScript source
- Server uses Deno's
emit
module to transpile it - Server serves the transpiled JavaScript (with all TypeScript syntax removed)
- Browser runs pure JavaScript
backend/routes/static.js
- Added TypeScript transpilationfrontend/chatterApp.js
- Fixed import typos and missing functionsfrontend/core/index.ts
- Removedexport type
frontend/types.ts
- Removed duplicate function declarations
- App loads without errors
- Create new chat works
- Send message works
- Reasoning displays
- Branch switching works
- Fork functionality works
- Refresh preserves data
TypeScript transpilation happens on every request. For production, consider:
- Pre-compiling TypeScript to JavaScript
- Caching transpiled results
- Using a build step to generate
.js
files
For development, the current on-the-fly transpilation works fine.
