It's interesting to learn that the two sibling comments here (at the time of writing) both misunderstood the parent. Both in exactly the same way, too. In the parent post, pcx shares his experience with trying to make TypeScript work, concludes that he wasn't able to make it work, then says he was able to make Flow work and lists ways in which Flow made his life easier. Not even a word in the post suggests that the parent intended his "pros" list to be a comparison between TS and Flow. It's just a list of things Flow does for him. Not even one mention of TS on that list! I don't quite understand why would one misinterpret a list of good things about one tool to be also, implicitly, a list of bad things about another tool. It's not politics, we don't need such polarization in technical discussions, saying that Flow has great docs is not the same as saying TS has bad docs. But the real problem is that, by choosing to get offended by something entirely unrelated, the sibling commenters missed the one direct comparison between TS and Flow and a real TS criticism: parent says it's easier to setup Flow compared to TS. It would be better to discuss this point - I'm not qualified to do so myself, unfortunately - instead of focusing on statements the parent never wrote.
