Create react app doesn't compile on typescript error

Issue

I want typescript errors to appear as warnings, but not crash my dev server. I was able to do so for eslint with setting .env file with ESLINT_NO_DEV_ERRORS=true.

Is there a typescript equivalent?

It's really counter-productive for the prototyping phase.

This SO answer suggests:

{
  "compilerOptions": {
    ...
    strict: false
  }
)

But this also configures many other things (i.e. no no implicit any)

Thanks!

Solution

Set the enviroment variable TSC_COMPILE_ON_ERROR=true.
