Why TypeScript?

TypeScript extends JavaScript to ensure that a variable's data conforms to a certain form, or "type"!

Why TypeScript?

TypeScript allows for easier debugging and prevents bad data from circulating through an app by enforcing correct value types in variables!

Also:

  • all JavaScript works in TypeScript

    • so, TypeScript is just a matter of adding to JavaScript

  • TypeScript trans-piles into JavaScript to work on the web
