After switching to TypeScript, I am not sure whether I will ever go back to JavaScript (after so many years of using JS). I don't use or like Angular2 - but I use React with TypeScript. Even if we could use ES6 JavaScript in the browser, transpilation isn't going away completely because we need HTML, uglification, vendor-libs, etc to be brought in together before deploying to production. WARNING: If you are starting off with React+Typescript, expect to bang your head for may be, a couple of days, to get that stuff working. However, once it does work, it saves much more time and effort

React + Flow is great also.

If you're going React I suggest starting out with (or at least checking out) Flow over Typescript. It's well integrated with the React ecosystem and has type soundness as a goal.
