TypeScript: how to delete the *.js.map files from the project

Question

I had set "sourceMap": true in my tsconfig.json file. After compiling every ts file got its js.map file. I reset "sourceMap": false and recompiled. The *js.map files did not get deleted. How can I get rid of them?

Answer 1

With a unix-based system you can use find and execute:

find . -name "*.js.map" -exec rm {} \;

I find it to be very useful.
