In TypeScript, we can use the process.cwd() method to get the current working directory path. This method is available in the process module of Node.js.

For example, let's say we have a TypeScript file called app.ts in the following directory - /home/user/projects/my-app. To get the working directory path within this TypeScript file, we can use the following code:

console.log(process.cwd());

When we run this TypeScript file, the output will be:

/home/user/projects/my-app

Similarly, if we have another TypeScript file called utils.ts in the directory - /home/user/projects/my-app/utils, and we want to get the working directory path within this file, we can use the same code:

console.log(process.cwd());

And the output will be:

/home/user/projects/my-app/utils

So, by using the process.cwd() method, we can easily get the current working directory path in TypeScript.
