Your feelings towards JavaScript essentially mirror mine, though I've found writing code in TypeScript for Meteor has been a much more pleasant experience and gives me more confidence in the code I write.

- programminggeek 13y agoDoes typescript do type checking at runtime or just compile time? I was really excited about typescript initially, especially for use with Obvious Architecture, but then it looked like it was just compile time, not runtime checking which seems problematic to me.
- DCoder 13y agoTypeScript only does enough run-time argument checking to support default argument values. Full run-time type checking would have overhead. It would also be unnecessary in places where data flows from Typescript function to Typescript function — those places should already be foolproof after the compile-time checks.
