What resources did you TypeScript users use to learn it? I'm thinking of joining this cult...

https://www.typescriptlang.org/docs/handbook/basic-types.html https://www.typescriptlang.org/play/index.html Helps to have a solid foundation in modern javascript The key point is typescript is just modern javascript + some annotations and nothing more. The type annotations have no effect when your code is running, they just go away and you get javascript. The annotations come into play while you are developing your code to verify its soundness. You eliminate a whole class of potential bugs in your code without even running it. E.g., that you are using APIs correctly, that you didn't mispell something, that you don't try to use something that might be

null

without checking it first, that you don't try to use something as a number when it might actually be a string, etc.
