## Idea
Since CC is now a standalone js engine it might be cool to have the capability to execute typescript files directly via CC to allow for a faster development cycle.

## Implementation
This feature would work by just throwing away type information in the parser.
It should be available via an opt-in flag.

## Tasks
- [ ] Ignore simple type-annotations
- [ ] Ignore type definitions (`type` keyword)
- [ ] Ignore type declarations (`declare` keyword)
- [ ] Ignore TS interface syntax (`interface` and `implements` keyword)
- [ ] Parse and expose TS `enum` fields (future)
- [ ] Handle `namespace`s
- [ ] Handle TS decorators (future)
