How to use the fs module in TypeScript?

To use the fs module in TypeScript, we can import the module with import.

For instance, we write

import * as fs from "fs";
import * as path from "path";

fs.readFile(
  path.join(__dirname, "./client/index.html"),
  "utf8",
  (error, data) => {
    // ...
  }
);

to import the fs module with

import * as fs from "fs";

Then we call fs.readFile with the path of the file we want to read.

Then we get the file data from the data parameter in the callback.
