We used it for some Angular 1.x apps. I liked it better than using vanilla JS because it was easy to add type annotations when they really mattered to you. But otherwise, I just used it like vanilla JS. It didn't seem to have much downside.

We still have some bits and pieces of TypeScript in production, but I haven't touched it in a while now. If we do touch it, it will probably be to rewrite the app in Elm.
