TypeScript is a programming language that helps developers understand projects more quickly and better describe what the code should be doing. In this Tech in 2, Senior Consultant Rebecca Dicharry shares three ways using TypeScript can improve your next development project. Typescript helps developers understand the project more quickly. It tells them what it should do and helps them describe what the code actually should be doing. Typescript is great for lots of different projects. It could be just a small web development project or even a really large enterprise application. It makes writing code and maintaining code so much easier.
- Increased Productivity. Typescript can help developers be more productive. For example, Javascript can be kind of a big jumble of code that winds around and traces back on itself. Typescript helps you lay it all out in a way that’s easy to understand. Also, it opens up the development tools and makes them smarter, because they also can have these insights into what the code should be doing.
- More Uses Than You Think. It can be used with a lot of modern frameworks or even just kind of stand alone and compile back to Javascript. It can also be used with background frameworks, compiling Javascript, and running on top of Node.js. Typescript opens up a wealth of powerful features.
- Allows Your Application To Do More. You can combine them and declare them in more sophisticated ways. It provides union and intersection types, which is a way of putting different types together. Typescript also supports object-oriented constructs. There’s some support for that in Javascript, but Typescript just makes it work so much better. You’ve got classes and interfaces, so it really gives you a lot of tools for providing structure to your code and making sure that it does what it says it will do.
