+# Chronicle TypeScript Client
+
+### Append a fact from Node.js. Let a reactor respond. Read the combined history.
+
+**Chronicle · Node.js · TypeScript**
+
+[Back to all samples](../../README.md)
+
+</div>
+
+---
+
+## The idea
+
+A guestbook records visitors. The program appends one immutable `VisitorArrived` event, a reactor responds by appending a `VisitorWelcomed` event, and the program reads the complete history back — all from Node.js with the [`@cratis/chronicle`](https://www.npmjs.com/package/@cratis/chronicle) client.
+
+```mermaid
+flowchart LR
+    program[Node.js program] -->|append VisitorArrived| log[Chronicle event log]
+    log -->|observe| reactor[ConciergeReactor]
+    reactor -->|append VisitorWelcomed| log
+    log -->|history| program
+```
+
+There is no HTTP API, projection, or frontend in the way. This sample is about the TypeScript client and the event log itself.
+
+## Pinned versions
+
+| Piece | Version |
+| --- | --- |
+| [`@cratis/chronicle`](https://www.npmjs.com/package/@cratis/chronicle) | `3.1.1` |
+| [`@cratis/fundamentals`](https://www.npmjs.com/package/@cratis/fundamentals) | `7.18.2` |
+| Chronicle server image | `cratis/chronicle:latest-development` |
+| Node.js | 23 or newer |
+
+The npm dependencies are pinned exactly in [`package.json`](./package.json). The `latest-development` image tag is a moving development tag; the sample intentionally tracks the current development build of the Chronicle server.
+
+## Run it
+
+You need Node.js 23 or newer, npm, and Docker.
+
+Start Chronicle with the included [`docker-compose.yml`](./docker-compose.yml) — the development image bundles MongoDB, so one container is enough:
+
+```bash
+cd Chronicle/TypeScript
+docker compose up -d
+```
+
+Install the dependencies and run the sample:
+
+```bash
+npm install
+npm start
+```
+
+You should see the three steps in order:
+
+```text
+[append] VisitorArrived('Ada') appended to 'reception-guestbook' at sequence 0.
+[react]  ConciergeReactor saw VisitorArrived('Ada') at sequence 0 and responds with a VisitorWelcomed event.
+[read]   Guestbook 'reception-guestbook' history — 2 event(s):
+  [seq 0] VisitorArrived: {"name":"Ada"}
+  [seq 1] VisitorWelcomed: {"name":"Ada","greeting":"Welcome, Ada!"}
+```
+
+Pass a name to record someone else — every run appends new facts to the same history:
+
+```bash
+npm start -- Grace
+```
+
+Open Chronicle Workbench at <http://localhost:8080> and select the `TypeScriptGuestbook` event store to inspect the same history visually.
+
+## Clean up
+
+Stop and remove the container when you are done:
+
+```bash
+docker compose down
+```
+
+The event store lives inside the container, so removing it also removes the recorded history. Remove the sample's local artifacts with:
+
+```bash
+npm run clean
+```
+
+## Code tour
+
+| File | What it shows |
+| --- | --- |
+| [`events.ts`](./events.ts) | Two small, past-tense `@eventType()` classes |
+| [`reactor.ts`](./reactor.ts) | A `@reactor()` that returns a side-effect event |
+| [`index.ts`](./index.ts) | Connect, append, wait for observers, and read the history |
+| [`docker-compose.yml`](./docker-compose.yml) | The single-container local Chronicle server |
+
+The client setup is intentionally short:
+
+```typescript
+const client = new ChronicleClient(ChronicleOptions.development());
+const store = await client.getEventStore('TypeScriptGuestbook');
+const result = await store.eventLog.append(GUESTBOOK_ID, new VisitorArrived(name));
+```
+
+After the append, `result.waitForCompletion()` waits until every observer — here the `ConciergeReactor` — has caught up, so the read that follows sees the reactor's side effect instead of racing it.
+
+Set the `CHRONICLE_CONNECTION` environment variable to point the sample at a different Chronicle server (for example `chronicle://localhost:35000`).
+
+## Build check
+
+```bash
+npm run compile
+```
+
+Type-checks the sample with the TypeScript compiler.
+
+## Make it yours
+
+- Record a `VisitorLeft` event and react to it differently.
+- Give `VisitorWelcomed` its own event source to build a separate welcome log.
+- Move on to the [Chronicle Backend](../Backend/README.md) sample to see the same append-and-read journey from .NET behind an HTTP API.
+
+> [!NOTE]
+> This focused sample deliberately leaves out projections, read models, constraints, transactions, tenancy, authentication, and production configuration.
