My first draft of this was just naively inserting all the type definitions from framework.d.ts into instance-mode.d.ts, but I discovered that the type definitions inside a class declaration use a different format. Then I discovered that typeof xxx gives the type of a given declaration in global scope, and each declaration can be added into the class in instance-mode.d.ts as such. After that, the only problem left was to find the names of all declarations inside framework.d.ts for the generation of the type 'imports'. I asked AI about the problem, and received a fully functional function which worked well in my testing.

I tested this change by copying the new .d.ts files into the correct places inside the node_modules of a project I am working on. I am not sure of how I could test if this change works in the NPM package release as well.

All suggestions / change requests welcome. I am not quite sure, for example, if the naming of the type files matches the official terminology, so if you want those to be changed, that's fine.

I can't merge because /q5.d.ts is required by /learn/docs.js to generate the Learn page at https://q5js.org/learn

All files in /types will be loaded by VSCode, so template/build files should go in a folder with another name, perhaps types_build.

Also use tabs instead of spaces in /package.json to minimize changed lines.

Thanks for the review, I'll resolve these next time I'm at my desktop.

That's actually still there, it just references the type files with /// . But yeah, docs.js does not seem to understand that right now. Should it be changed to just read ./types/framework.d.ts instead? That's the simplest solution I can think of.

Good catch, will do.

Yeah, that's either my editor or bun i doing some automatic formatting for some reason, I'll try to fix that. Annoying...

That'd almost work but framework.d.ts is missing these:

Perhaps you could build one typescript file /q5.d.ts and don't make a types folder. Then adjust docs.js to stop before the dupped instance props.

That would work, I guess. But maybe it would be less work on the docs.js side to just read both framework.d.ts and instace-mode-template.d.ts instead of making it stop before the duplicated props?
