Install Node.js and TypeScript

The hub uses Node.js to install packages and run Next.js. TypeScript ships inside the website repo (devDependencies). Install Node; then npm install pulls TypeScript.

1. Install Node.js

Use current LTS from nodejs.org. Vercel’s default Node for new projects is 24 LTS; a recent LTS on your machine is fine for local work.

Check:

node -v
npm -v

Both should print versions.

2. Install the website packages

gh repo clone Tiger-Studio-WAB/Tiger-Studio-Website
cd Tiger-Studio-Website
npm install

That installs typescript, next, React, and the rest from package.json.

3. You rarely run tsc yourself
