Help me review code on my typescript side project.

Having used Javascript for quite a while now, I recently decided to start a new journey with typescript. I want to be able to write better javascript programs that are self-documented, predictable, and secure.

I thought to myself that the best way would be to get my hands dirty with typescript code. Much as I go through tutorials and videos that teach typescript, I need to have a hands-on taste of typed javascript in the real world.

Why am I telling you all this?

I'm looking for some friends who are experienced with typescript, to help review my code and collaborate on my first typescript project. The project is a tiny npm package that I just started working on.

I haven't written a README yet. But the package is a simple javascript database for prototyping database operations from within javascript.

I bootstrapped the project using a typescript template from tsdx. TSDX is a CLI tool for creating awesome typescript packages easily. Check it out here

The motivation

I chose this projects because I love working with databases in general. But often times I need to protoype some database ops without installing and configuring real database services. In such scenarios, all I need is some way to mock database actions quickly without leaving my code.

The objective of this simple package is to provide a solution to the above stated problem by: Providing simple database from within javascript.

The goal of the project

*To help me learn more real world uses of the typescript language.

*To enable me gain confidence in using typescript as the default language for my next Javascript projects.

*To confidently share my insights and knowledge about using typescript

This project is not specifically about me, or my interests. I welcome anyone who's interested in learning typescript. I think learning together within a community will be of vital importance.
