  • TypeScript

    TypeScript is a superset of JavaScript that compiles to clean JavaScript output.

  • It's not exactly misleading. Even TypeScript may be planning to support skipping type checking [0] so you can do faster compiles.

    Cool to learn about JS++ but unlike babel/typescript/esbuild/swc JS++ cannot read TypeScript, it's a completely new/different language.
