My biggest gripe with Flow is how buggy it is.
1. it often fails to find the type for an imported piece of code
2. more often than not refers to the type definition being a problem rather than whoever's calling a function with an incorrect type
3. it seems to have an issue with cache busting(?) (I `killall flow` multiple times per day to make sure it's not complaining about old code)
All in all I feel very sad for choosing Flow over TypeScript two weeks ago. We felt TS would be more invasive to our Webpack pipeline but I think I might just take a weekend to migrate over to TS...
TS seems to have a lot more type definitions available as well, a more active community perhaps?
Looking at the issue list of Flow I'm starting to suspect they're not very active in maintenance / issue handling. TS seems much more active.
