Typescript's type system is vastly different from Javas, and if you're using it that way you're missing most of the good parts. The great thing is it's powerful enough that you don't lose JS's dynamic features, but your code becomes much more self documenting and clearer, and your IDE has a much better idea how to support you. I would never go back to vanilla JS, typescript saves me way too much time and from too many headaches.
