This book is about the programming language TypeScript, which is one of the most loved languages, according to the Developer Survey on Stack Overflow (see https://insights.stackoverflow.com/survey/2019). According to the latest issue of the reputable ThoughtWork’s Technology Radar (https://assets.thoughtworks.com/assets/technology-radar-vol-19-en.pdf), “TypeScript is a carefully considered language and its consistently improving tools and IDE support continues to impress us. With a good repository of TypeScript-type definitions, we benefit from all the rich JavaScript libraries while gaining type safety.”
We use TypeScript daily, and we like it a lot! We really like TypeScript for allowing us to focus on the main problem we’re solving and not on typos in an object’s property name. In TypeScript programs, the chances of getting runtime errors are substantially lower compared to code originally written in JavaScript. We also like that IDEs offer great TypeScript support and literally walk us through the maze of APIs from third-party libraries we use in our projects.
TypeScript is great, but since it’s a compiled-to-JavaScript language, we also need to talk a bit about JavaScript. In May 1995, after 10 days of hard work, Brendan Eich created the JavaScript programming language. This scripting language didn’t need a compiler and was meant to be used in the Netscape Navigator web browser.
