TypeScript

What do you like best?

Typescript adds strict typing to the so loose javascript language. Typescript has a huge following, makes it easy to find help on how to integrate typescript in any javascript project like React, Node/Express, Electron and more. Typescript offers error detection during development which eliminates the need to use linters to catch errors

What do you dislike?

They say you can still use the normal javascript with typescript but sometimes typescript forces you to declare types especially with function arguments instead of automatically inferring undeclared types as "any"

Recommendations to others considering the product:

Typescript adds safety to any javascript projects especially the huge projects where code maintenance is very critical

What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized?

Typescripts error catching features during development prevents alot of silly bags the are associated with javascript which does not warn you in case for instance you misspell a variable name
