JavaScript is Taking Over the World, and TypeScript With It

JavaScript has become the most popular programming language in the world. But as JavaScript has become more popular, so has TypeScript, and it's rise continues. The RedMonk language popularity measure has been recently released and has shown a huge jump in TypeScript usage.

Not everyone is happy about this. Many developers love their nice, dynamic JavaScript, and don't want types. But like it or not, there's a very real possibility that you may end up in a job using TypeScript.

That's why I've put together a brand new, completely free course on the Five Essential Lessons for TypeScript Competence. I have cut out all the extra cruft and kept in just the essential things that you need to know about TypeScript. I even included some practice exercises so that you can actually LEARN the concepts by DOING, instead of just listening and then immediately forgetting most of what you heard. Check it out. It's well worth your time if you're not comfortable with TypeScript yet. You'll be TypeScript competent in just fifteen minutes.

I hope you enjoy it.

Happy coding!
