DazScript Framework

The DazScript Framework is a TypeScript-based framework for writing Daz Studio scripts. It provides all the advantages of a typed language such as autocompletion, error checking, and method parameter documentation and hinting. The framework also includes a set of dialog helpers for rapid UI development.

Benefits

Autocompletion: Take advantage of IDE autocompletion for faster and more efficient script development.
Error Checking: Catch potential errors early in the development process with TypeScript's static analysis.
Method Documentation & Hinting: Get contextual documentation and hints for methods, classes, and parameters.

Features

TypeScript support with full IntelliSense.
A powerful set of decorators and helper methods for building interactive scripts.
Easy integration with Daz Studio for quick script deployment.
