@numbakrunch I’m not sure why you are getting mixed reviews. I have been using TS for almost 4 years ago. Working in enterprise with a large org I wouldn’t go back to dynamic typing without static analysis.

@numbakrunch it's worth it. I couldn't imagine writing JS without it, starting 5 years ago.

Once you learn TS, you never wanna go back to JS. Types and interfaces save you a lot of problems during development.
