How to run TypeScript files from the command line?

Hi everyone! I just started learning TypeScript and ran into a problem. I wrote a simple script in TypeScript, but I can't run it from the command line. I tried the command `node myfile.ts`, but Node.js gives an error that it can't understand TypeScript syntax. Here's my code: ```typescript // hello.ts function greet(name: string): string { return `Hello, ${name}!`; } const message = greet('World'); console.log(message); ``` When I run `node hello.ts`, I get this error: ``` SyntaxError: Unexpected token ':' at wrapSafe (internal/modules/cjs/loader.js:...) ``` I understand that Node.js doesn't natively support TypeScript, but how do I properly run .ts files? I've heard about ts-node, but I'm not sure how to install and use it. Maybe there are other ways?
