TypeScript Support

[Offroaders123]

Wow, thank you for making this project! Seems like all of the other demos for Vite and Electron out there use some kind of other tool which abstracts away the steps to combine the tooling manually, and this one actually shows how to do it.

I was curious how to combine these configurations with TypeScript? I recently moved my own vanilla CommonJS Electron project over to TypeScript, and it's working really well! I also recently found out that Electron natively supports ESM out of the box now too, so I also implemented that to see how support for it feels so far (It's nice! the only holdup is that preload scripts still have to be in CommonJS).

The next stage to make it even better would be to add Vite, and optionally Svelte (similar to this project). I was going to try adding full TypeScript, or even allowJs / checkJs support to this project, but I wasn't quite sure how that would fit in with the current configurations for this project.

I'd be happy to help work on adding support too! I just wasn't sure where the best place to start was, after trying solo myself by cloning the repo.

It would be great if this had typescript out of the box.
