throwaway92921··on The Concise TypeScript Book
Gotta say I’ve tried using TS and frankly haven’t seen too much benefit. This makes me suspicious since I’m clearly in the minority about this.

In general - while I’ve experienced some issues with types in JS, it usually isn’t the root cause of most bugs I encounter.

What screens make sense for are maps and safety features like showing your cars relation to the road, people, or other cars.

Hopefully this is a fad
