Why I Love TypeScript
As a developer and podcaster, I've come to appreciate the power and flexibility of TypeScript. Here are a few reasons why I'm such a big fan:
- Static typing catches errors before runtime
- Improved tooling and IDE support
- Enhanced code readability and maintainability
- Seamless integration with JavaScript
A Simple TypeScript Example
interface Person {
name: string;
age: number;
}
function greet(person: Person): string {
return `Hello, ${person.name}! You are ${person.age} years old.`;
}
const jerod: Person = { name: "Jerod Santo", age: 38 };
console.log(greet(jerod));
