 ## Setup
 
-The below steps will help you get up and running with TypeScript in your Greenwood project. The general recommendation is to use type-stripping during development for faster live reload, and then run TypeScript during CI (e.g. GitHub Actions) to check and enforce all types, e.g. `tsc --project tsconfig.json`.
+The below steps will help you get up and running with TypeScript in your Greenwood project, and are the [same settings](https://github.com/ProjectEvergreen/greenwood/blob/master/packages/init/src/template-base-ts/tsconfig.json) you'll get running [Greenwood's **init** package with TypeScript enabled](/docs/introduction/setup/#init). The general recommendation is to use type-stripping during development for faster live reload, and then run TypeScript during CI (e.g. GitHub Actions) to check and enforce all types, e.g. `tsc --project tsconfig.json`.
 
 1. You will need to use Node **>= 22.6.0** and set the `--experimental-strip-types` flag
 1. Install TypeScript into your project, e.g. `npm i typescript --save-dev`
