However, on the frontend, it has been nearly a disaster.

This quantifies 1) lack of interest 2) lack of leadership 3) lack of skill and 3) new tech rejection from the Javascript world of chaos.

Likely a lot of those things. Difficulty with 3rd party libraries with the same set of issues as well. We found we had to fix types on 3rd party libraries a number of times and did our part submitting PRs. This article is mostly a response to the universal praise TS receives. I don't think all the issues are with TS itself.
