# TypeScript

To define **TypeScript** as the **target language** in a template file :

```
#set( $env.language = 'TypeScript' )
```

The information below shows the behavior of the generator when TypeScript is the current target language.

For a detailed description of type conversion and literal values see the generated documentation:[

<https://www.telosys.org/doc/latest/languages/language-typescript.html>

| timetz        | **Date**        |   |
| datetime      | **Date**        |   |
| datetimetz    | **Date**        |   |
| ~~timestamp~~ | **Date**        |   |
| uuid          | **string**      |   |
| binary        | **Uint8Array**  |   |
