I just want to hear your answer with one of those... How did you do type checking before TypeScript (or the like) in JS? give me a real answer.......

  I didn't, and you didn't mention type checking above. One very common way though was to avoid the need for it altogether in javascript, by rendering html on the server.

    That's a different poster, and I did mention it above. What does server-side rendering have to do with Typescript? Are you advocating avoiding javascript all together?

      Sorry, I missed that, I was replying to the parent comment only. But yes, I do advocate avoiding javascript altogether whenever possible (which is more often than current trends). There were a number of other transpilers too, all of which were a pain and I don't see how typescript is going to improve on that.
