I'm curious specifically what friction you ran into.

  The biggest obstacle for Typescript by far is using libraries which have no or outdated declaration files on DefinitelyTyped. You can get good at writing the declarations yourself, but it's hugely annoying.

    Well, you don't have to write any declarations -- everything will just be typed as `any`, which isn't preferable but is exactly what you'd get if you weren't using typescript.

  Eh, I guess it was mainly the learning curve and lack of payoff. As mentioned here, I think my project size wasn't big enough for it to show it's usefulness.
