Are there any tools that can generate a UML class diagram from a project in TypeScript or a similar language?

You should really ask 2 questions, one for each language... I doubt the syntax is so similar that one tool would work for both.MasterScrat– MasterScrat2016-09-20 16:19:17 +00:00Commented Sep 20, 2016 at 16:19

For TypeScript:
The ALM TypeScript editor includes this feature: https://github.com/alm-tools/alm/issues/84
However it looks like it only creates diagram for a single class, not a full hierarchical view of the project with inheritance relationships.
Tsviz is another promising project: https://github.com/joaompneves/tsviz
It generates full project diagram. However it looks outdated and doesn't work with recent TypeScript versions. I'm working on an updated fork.

Using UML Diagram feature introduced by IntelliJ Editor by Jetbrains and it works very well with typescript.
Open the Diagram Popup
Go to Settings >>> Search for uml and find the keyboard shortcut for it.
OR
Right Click on a class name >>> Diagrams >>> Show Diagram Popup
Show class properties and methods:
Righ Click on the diagram popup >>> Show Categories >>> Methods or Properties
Tips
- You will find many options to show through the right click on the diagram popup.
You can zoom on the diagram objects (If there are too much details) by holding the Alt key when hovering on them

@PaulJohnLeonard Please don't be quick to judge. I have just checked the history stackoverflow.com/posts/17931892/revisions and you can see that the question title has been updated 2 years after the answer.
