Why you should adopt TypeScript

On this episode, we talk with Stefan Baumgartner, author of “TypeScript in 50 Lessons” about what TypeScript is, and why we should adopt it.

We discuss how the entire ecosystem, from fledgling developers to framework authors benefit immensely from TypeScript, and we discuss exactly how and why that is.

It’s likely that if you do any JavaScript coding at all these days, you’re actually using some facet of TypeScript without even known it.

Join us to learn how to leverage the rest of what TypeScript has to offer!
