It has an insanely complex type system. It's kind of incredible, I don't know of any other type systems off hand which are totally turing-complete. That's honestly really impressive. I don't think you need to use most of these types until you start getting into stuff like needing union types. You can get away with reading and writing most typescript without getting too crazy. I think the most compelling thing I read about type hinting is that it's like salt - A little and the dish doesn't taste the same without it but too much and you've ruined the thing
