Requirements
To use the Typescript APIs, you first need to ensure that the following software is installed:
- node.js 14 or better with npm or yarn.
- TypeScript 4.6.4 or later.
- cross-fetch. Causal uses cross-fetch for its network requests. In future versions this will be configurable. Install cross fetch as a dependency in your node projects.
You will also need to install the causal compiler, which you can include as a dev dependency in your projects or install via npx.
npm install --save-dev @causal/compiler
