Our company guidlines forbids JS, we have to use TypeScript, no mather how good a dev may think he is.

You won’t have only experienced devs in your team. And Type annotations help a lot during the development process. If you are writing a 300line script maybe you don’t need it. But for a big codebase it’s faster to change the code with typescript because you have more information and typescript won’t let you make stupid type mismatch bugs.

As the saying goes, code is primarily for humans to read and only incidental for computers to run. Type visibility and safety is paramount and Typescript exists because of how shit JS to develop with

Type Script is JavaScript for large code bases that are maintained by more than one person.

Aboslutely disagree. As humans we make mistakes all the time no matter how experienced we are. Javascript is really hard to rely on in terms of many stupid cases (0 ==[]). When you do not have types you do not what are you working with so it is easier for you to make mistake (most of time this is not your code). TypeScript is more car support system it does not make you great driver but make you travels much safer especially if you are experienced enough

Totally disagree. Today I needed to add a field to a data structure. With TypeScript I found all places that I needed to change within 2 minutes. No errors like “x.y is undefined” as in standard JavaScript!

Thank you 🙏🏾

So supper set is unnecessary cool

Mmm, yes and no.
