What is TypeScript and why would I use it in place of JavaScript

Question

Can you please describe what the TypeScript language is?

What can it do that JavaScript or available libraries cannot do, that would give me reason to consider it?

Answer 1

TypeScript is a superset of JavaScript which primarily provides optional static typing, classes and interfaces. One of the big benefits is to enable IDEs to provide a richer environment for spotting common errors as you type the code.

Just try reading the documentations and you can explore a world of options out there
