I was once working at a place which was heavily invested in CoffeeScript (at that time, the syntax and the handy sintactic sugar were awesome compared to what JS had to offer). A few years later after I left the company, I had a chat with an excolleague of mine and asked they if they have migrated to JS + babel transpilation. They didn't. As of today they are still working with CoffeeScript. It's a huge codebase.
I see TS just like CoffeeScript.
- FractalHQ 5y agoTypescript is amazing. I didn’t get it until I built a large project with it. Now I can’t imagine working without it. Every-time I join a vanilla JS codebase, I can’t help but notice the multitude of bugs and setbacks we run into that would have been avoided entirely had they used TS. And the productivity gains scale exponentially with the size of the project- just as the harm scales in vanilla. Doing justice to the advantages TS provides would take a proper blog post though.
- tasuki 5y agoIs there a problem with CoffeeScript? I'd used it once and enjoyed it.
