Do we really have to have this discussion after it has been discussed a thousand times? That you need something like TypeScript is a telltale sign. You also can do weird shit with it, that doesn't make any sense. That's documented well enough imho. Javascript gives almost no language-enforced guarantees, which causes bugs. It's such a simple thing to have compiler guarantees but it has so much effect. For example when switching from java to kotlin. PS: I also mentioned language guarantees in my parent post ;)
