+# TypeScript function (NodeJS and TypeScript)
+
+Boilerplate setup for a Binaris function written in TypeScript
+
+It is assumed you already have a Binaris account. If you don't have an account yet, worry not, signing up is painless and takes just 2 minutes. Visit [Getting Started](https://dev.binaris.com/tutorials/nodejs/getting-started/) to find concise instructions for the process.
+
+## Using the function
+
+1. Install dev-dependencies needed to compile TypeScript.
+
+    ```bash
+    $ npm install
+    ```
+
+1. Compile the TypeScript function for Binaris deployment.
+
+    ```bash
+    $ npm run build
+    ```
+
+1. Deploy the function.
+
+    ```bash
+    $ bn deploy typescript
+    ```
+
+1. Invoke.
+
+    ```bash
+    $ bn invoke typescript
+      "Hello World!"
+    ```
+
+> Note: The "npm run deploy" script is a convenience target that compiles and deploys your TypeScript function
