If you're a library author doing non-trivial type stuff, it's believable you might be slowed down by more than 10% because TS can get really really tricky for libraries.
But it's worth it because you're about to get a massive multiplier effect based on the scale of your user base.
- leptons 2y ago>If you're a library author doing non-trivial type stuff So what if I'm not a "library author", what I do could still be non-trivial, and I could still do it without typescript like people have been doing for decades before. Typescript is not the only strong-typing game in javascript town. >But it's worth it because you're about to get a massive multiplier effect based on the scale of your user base. Using typescript is not a causal factor for this. What the library does, and what people need is. And honestly I don't care who is using a library I make, life isn't all about likes and it isn't a popularity contest.
