TypeScript is actually pretty amazing, a lot of people strongly dislike it, but I think it gives a reasonable amount of safety for such a dynamic language, I would use it even if only for the autocompletion. It encourages a better (imo) style of programming than traditional JS that did all kinds of dark magic, like modifying the prototype chain. Sometimes I wonder what a world with strong ESM support, a slim runtime such as just [1], strong typing (like Rescript is trying to do), a unified format/lint toolchain and a solid standard library would like like, look how far Node.js has gotten despite its numerous flaws.
