Is the DefinitelyTyped Project the same at the @types project?

Question

I'm pretty new to Typescript, and I'm trying to understand the parts that go into it. Is the DefinitelyTyped Project the same at the @types project?, and is @types the latest way to add type definitions to a project.

Answer 1

Is the DefinitelyTyped Project the same at the @types project?

You could say that. A better statement : The NPM modules under @types are automatically published from the type definitions present in the DefinitelyTyped Project.

• The @types org Packages : https://www.npmjs.com/~types
• Definitely Typed files used to generate / publish the packages : https://github.com/DefinitelyTyped/DefinitelyTyped
