I've been using TypeScript for experimenting with Node.js and while it's a great solution there's a few difficulties some might face with it:
-TypeScript definitions for many libraries, such as express are out of date and require modding to use.
-Visual Studio has no built in support for TypeScript with Node for debugging, but it has been mentioned as likely to be added by the TypeScript team eventually.
-There are third party plugins for Node in Visual Studio for debugging, but none support TypeScript yet.
I've found the best solution thus far is Intellij IDEA or WebStorm, as it has support for both Node and TypeScript.
- novaleaf 13y agofyi, webstorm 7 has good compiler support for typescript, but the ide intellisence/ syntax highlighting is still not great. i use typescript professionally, i use vs2013 for writing code, webstorm for debugging / testing
