    Typescript is truly an amazing tool, It made the javascript development so much simpler. All these frameworks will eventually fade out, but typescript will be around for a very long time.

    Typescript is awesome! But why does it have so many issues on Github (2062 at the moment)?

    I only wished TypeScript would place some kind of typechecks into JavaScript. Now, when I get false data from my database, I have to check manually, what's kind of annoying.
    Also, does he really use chrome-browser :D ?
