    • @mohammedaliagha7520
      @mohammedaliagha7520 4 года назад +20

      @ChoppedBlade typescript compiles down to JavaScript. It can compile down to browser compatible js that uses the dom, or Node.js Javascript that uses node apis like fs, http, etc. That doesn't mean it's the same as nodejs

  • @adamg9834
    @adamg9834 4 года назад +19

    I have so many regrets as a junior developer. I contributed a bunch of angular 7 code at a startup I work at. I had no web development experience, but regardless I needed to finish my tasks as they're assigned, so I mostly focused my efforts on learning the Angular framework (which I absolutely love tbh) and the bare minimum JS. God the web project has gotten so big now, and I really wish I fully embraced the typescript... Future junior web devs out there, heed my warning: don't neglect TS! I feel like I'm stuck conforming to bad habits for the sake of consistency.

  • @cazino4

    Hey, great tutorial. Been using the ES6 version of JS in both frontend browser-based apps and backend NodeJS apps for some time now and whilst its marked improvement over prior versions (owning to the first class support for classes, objects and inheritance, etc) one thing that its missing, in my view, as an engineer used to working with fully fledged backend languages (I,e Java,Go,etc) , is Strong Typing. String Typing is useful for many of the reasons you cited in your video, principal among them: the ability to detect type mismatch (and related) errors at compile time rather than at runtime, which in and of it self may go some way to preventing the occurrence errors that can be incredibly difficult to reproduce and diagnose.
    I also love the fact that Typescript is essentially backwards compatible with JS, on account of it being a super set of the language; I may actually use Typescript on my next project and that is, in no small part, due to the clarity and intuitive exposition of this tutorial. Thank you!

    JS devs that are hesitant to learn TS because of the "extra code" will realize the amount of time saved from out of the box auto-complete with documentation + compiler errors instead of nasty runtime errors is worth it 100 fold. Plus the extra code is only if you want to adopt typescript features....if you just decide to write vanilla javascript you can and you'll still get the benefit of the typescript compiler catching a lot of potential errors for you.

    One piece of advise for any new/beginner web developer. Don't jump to TypeScript just yet. Take the time to properly learn JavaScript and then start using TypeScript to improve your code and workflow... if it becomes necessary.
    At the end of the day, JavaScript is king on the browser and if you want to be a competent web developer you simply must know and understand JavaScript well - in the same way you should learn CSS properly before learning LESS or SASS.
