Anders Hejlsberg: Introducing TypeScript
Oct 02, 2012 at 9:19 AMIn TypeScript, I can take my existing JavaScript code, cut-n-paste it into TypeScript source file (foo.ts)... and it works. TypeScript is a superset of JavaScript.
In C#, I can take my existing JavaScript code, cut-n-paste it into a C# source file (foo.cs)... and the compiler barfs. C# is not a superset of JavaScript.
TypeScript is to JavaScript as C++ is to C.
And TypeScript introduces some draft ES6 facilities (subject to change!) into modern browsers now. Which is not re-inventing the wheel at all, but very forward looking.
