🎅🏽🦖 Advent of Code 2024, solved using Deno and TypeScript

👋🏽 Information

Solutions in this repository are written in TypeScript and run using Deno. The aoc CLI tool is used to fetch inputs and run solutions.

Solutions can be found in the days/ directory, with each day having its own file. Inputs and puzzle descriptions have been omitted.

Generated from the Deno AOC 2024 template by @magnusrodseth

📦 Setup

1. Install Deno.
2. Install the aoc CLI tool (documentation).
3. Create a session cookie file at ~/.adventofcode.session for fetching inputs.

🛠️ Tasks

This project uses deno task to simplify common workflows:

• scaffold <day>: Create boilerplate files for a given day.
• download <day>: Download input and puzzle files for a specific day.
• solve <day>: Run the solution for a specific day.

Example Commands

# Scaffold a new day
deno task scaffold 1

# Download inputs for day 1
deno task download 1

# Solve puzzles for day 1
deno task solve 1

# Run tests for day 1
deno task test days/day01.ts

🌟 How It Works

• Use scaffold to create a solution template for a specific day.
• Use download to fetch inputs and puzzles.
• Write and test your solutions in the generated files.
• Use solve to run and verify your answers.
• Use test to run tests on example data for a specific day.
