I'm a JS dev with a few years experience... I got a job offer that requires typescript. Thing is I've never touched TS. How feasible would it be to try learning it in 3 days? Assuming I'm at work during the day, can only learn at night?

Something very useful is defining types for APIs you might be working with. The usual way I'd go about this is to open the raw JSON of an API response and copy all of it; then use either the online version of this tool or the VSCode extension they provide that allows you to directly paste an interface in TypeScript (among other languages); once you have the interface, you can use it as an explicit type where you receive your API response, and from then on the data you receive from the API will have the correct types. Of course depending on the data, the generated interface might have some quirks here and there, but it's pretty straightforward and you should be able to make your way in.
