That's a pretty misleading clickbait title. TypeScript isn't getting 10x faster; the TypeScript compiler is getting 10x faster.
I would argue it needs editing, as it violates the HN guideline:
> use the original title, unless it is misleading or linkbait; don't editorialize.
- campers 2y agoThere isn't a TypeScript runtime, it is just a JavaScript/ECMAScript compiler/transpiler with a type checking and language server
- salmonellaeater 2y agoMy initial interpretation of the title was that the TS team was adding support for another, faster, target such as the .NET runtime or native executables. The title could use some editing.
- Cthulhu_ 2y agoYeah, it's a bit linkbaity as it implies that the runtime is 10x faster; just adding the word 'compiler' or 'type checker' to the title would fix it.
- agos 2y agoThere isn't a single runtime, it's quite clear that Typescript here means the compiler
