We recently brought a large js project from js to ts and, while we had issues, almost all to do with transpiling and the obvious end result being javascript which is not typed. Coming from f#/c#, and having used Purescript, typescript feels familiar, however, it takes too much from js imho. Especially the automatic coercing is pretty annoying to us and still causes pain we would not have in the other languages mentioned above, but it is miles better than js. We can refactor much faster than we could before. We definitely are happy with the move. I will never be a fan, but the alternatives I cannot sell to the team.
