allow building despite TS errors

[KiaraGrouwstra]

Currently app-scripts' TS transpiler cancels the build on TS errors. I definitely like the pretty screen, but enforcing this behavior as a default setting presumes that the typings of all libraries, and in fact, TypeScript itself, are both infallible. I feel this might not be fully realistic in all cases, especially given even just the TypeScript repo itself has around 1.5k outstanding issues. Might it be an option to allow overriding this behavior with e.g. a command-line switch?

We may someday allow this but this behavior does not jive with what we think provides the best experience. I'll keep it open as a low priority issue.

Thanks,

In the event you'd nevertheless be willing to take a PR on this, I've made one from my fork.

@tycho01,

Sorry, this is outside of the scope of what we intend to do. Maybe in the future but in all sincerity probably not.

Thanks,
Dan
