TypeScript Types Declarations for WebNN

This package contains the TypeScript type declaration (.d.ts) files for the WebNN API

Using Types

Installing

TODO: Add installations instructions once npm package has been created.

Configuring

Since this package is outside of DefinitelyTyped, the types won't be automatically picked up. The following is a list of ways to add it to type lookup.

TODO: Add instructions for configuring tsconfig.json, Webpack, etc.

Updating Types

1. Update WebNN specification under spec
2. Generate types with npm run generate
3. Manually update webnn/index.d.ts with changes from generate/index.d.ts. Note that there are intentional differences between the versions under generate/ and webnn/ (see next section).
4. Push changes to all files under generated/ and webnn/.

Intensional Differences Generated and Final Types

• The current version of the TypeScript types generator doesn't add return types for new () on interfaces.
  • Currently only MLGraphBuilder needs to be updated

    new (context: MLContext) : MLGraphBuilder;

• The npu device type has been added to MLDeviceType for performance and compliance testing.
• The experimental MLBuffer API has been added for exploration.
