I like Typescript, however it leads to that "Enterprise Javascript" coding style I really hate, pushing OOP Java style over simple functional programming.

But I admit that being able to read type signatures in the source code makes understanding a code base way easier, it's just that people tend to be more verbose going full OOP , even when it is not necessary. But kudos for Microsoft, if only they would have accepted ES4 8 years ago, TS would not have been needed.

And by the way Microsoft, why not make Jscript.net cool again ?
