This is a simple question.
Typescript compiles to Javascript, so it'll die along with it. 😅
Well, no.
Typescript is technically Javascript's son, so if the parents died, it would just be an orphan.
So, there is TypescriptToLua, it transpiles Typescript to Lua instead of JS. So if JS become too sucky and unusable, basically dead, we can use that.
And we can also make an engine that runs runtime Typescript (that would mean run-time type-checking etc), kinda like V8 but Typescript.
I see, I didn't know of these options for Typescript! Especially TypescriptToLua sounds interesting, since that could make Lua the replacement for JS while still retaining TS.
Not with Dino around. If Dino replaces the JavaScript engine in a browser, that would be TypeScript directly in the browser.
I remember the Tcl/Tk plugin for Netscape’s browser. That was fun!
You mean Deno?
yea, I’m a lousy speller. But, most engineers are.
