The Benefits of using TypeScript are:

  1. TypeScript is fast, simple, easy to learn and runs on any browser or JavaScript engine.
  2. It is similar to JavaScript and uses the same syntax and semantics.
  3. This helps backend developers write front-end code faster.
  4. You can call the TypeScript code from an existing JavaScript code. Also, it works with existing JavaScript frameworks and libraries without any issues.
  5. The Definition file, with .d.ts extension, provides support for existing JavaScript libraries like Jquery, D3.js, etc.
  6. It includes features from ES6 and ES7 that can run in ES5-level JavaScript engines like Node.js.

TypeScript has the following benefits.

  • It provides the benefits of optional static typing. Here, Typescript provides types that can be added to variables, functions, properties, etc.
  • Typescript has the ability to compile down to a version of JavaScript that runs on all browsers.
  • TypeScript always highlights errors at compilation time during the time of development whereas JavaScript points out errors at the runtime.
  • TypeScript supports strongly typed or static typing whereas this is not in JavaScript.
  • It helps in code structuring.
  • It uses class-based object-oriented programming.
  • It provides excellent tooling supports with IntelliSense which provides active hints as the code is added.
  • It has a namespace concept by defining a module.
