TypeScript Overview

Often, newer developers like TypeScript because of the inner-loop feedback it provides in terms of things like code-completion and compiler feedback.

Some developers feel like it is an unnessecary hurdle and think "Why can't I just write JavaScript?"

Expert developers like TypeScript because it allows them to design and think in types. This is what we are going for here. We aren't using TypeScript to set up unnecessary ritual and hurdles to delivering quality code. We are using it to make our code more expressive, make it more resilient to refactoring, and making it so that we can move faster with more confidence.
