TSConfig Viewer

A VSCode extension that displays the complete TypeScript configuration for tsconfig files in monorepo setups.

Example

Features

  • View Complete Config: Shows the fully resolved TypeScript configuration
  • Monorepo Support: Works with any tsconfig.json or tsconfig.*.json file in your workspace
  • Auto-Refresh: Automatically updates the viewer when you save changes to the tsconfig file
  • Local TypeScript Support: Uses your project's local TypeScript installation if available, falls back to global

Usage

  1. Open any tsconfig.json or tsconfig.*.json file in your editor
  2. Click the "Show Complete TSConfig" button in the editor title bar, or
  3. Run the command TSConfig Viewer: Show Complete TSConfig from the Command Palette (Ctrl+Shift+P / Cmd+Shift+P)
  4. The complete configuration will be displayed in a side panel

Saving your tsconfig file will automatically update the side panel

Requirements

  • Visual Studio Code 1.85.0 or higher
  • TypeScript installed (locally in your project or globally)

How It Works

The extension executes tsc --project <path> --showConfig to get the resolved configuration including all inherited settings from extended configs. This is especially useful in monorepo setups where configs extend from base configurations.

Development

To run the extension in development mode:

  1. Install dependencies: pnpm install
  2. Compile: npm run compile or npm run watch
  3. Press F5 to open a new VSCode window with the extension loaded
  4. Open a tsconfig file and test the extension
