On the contrary, I think it shows great maturity in the decision making process. Many highly experienced developers have stayed away from TypeScript for reasons like those mentioned in the article (mostly to do with the build environment, source mapping, versioning complexity, etc...) These are very significant problems and not worth the small benefits which static typing brings.

- Aeolun 6y agoI just cannot consider this a reasonable stance. There are places where no-typescript would be appropriate, but they’re vanishingly small. The idea that the benefits static typing brings are small is just laughable. The reason this is such a hard choice is because static typing brings great benefits, so choosing to forgo that is not easy.
