TypeScript has gained massive popularity in recent years. According to Stackoverflow’s 2020 survey, TypeScript is the 2nd most loved programming language in the world (it was 3rd most loved in 2019) - clearly showing that the increase in popularity is quite astounding.
TypeScript (developed by Microsoft) is an open-source programming language that compiles into JavaScript. Since its release in 2012, the language has remained in active development and is gaining popularity and recognition every year.
The development community strongly associated TypeScript with Angular in the early days but now you can use it with practically anything like ReactJS, Node.js, Deno etc.
Is it too late to start learning TypeScript now?
Well, it is never too late if you start TODAY! Gain an advantage by being the one among those who really understand TypeScript and not just treats this as a college project.
TypeScript & JavaScript are the same right? NO!
While TypeScript is a superset of JavaScript; it means TypeScript eventually gets compiled into JavaScript, so they are not the same.
The main benefit of TypeScript is its static typing feature that provides additional information about your code which serves as better documentation for other developers and enables them to catch more mistakes during compilation right away.
The language is modern with features like interfaces, unions, intersection types, enums, classes, and visibility scopes. Additionally, because it is a superset, it has all the modern JavaScript features like destructuring, arrow functions and optional chaining operators too.
