Typescript is a Microsoft project, right? I’m surprised they didn’t choose C#.
- jasonthorsness 2y agoEspecially given Anders is the one announcing this, given he was the chief architect of C#. But C# AOT is maybe not as mature/lightweight as a Go binary and clearly startup time here is very important.
