10/01/2025, 9:36 AMThe whole script looks pretty weird - if this is what TS is outputting, it needs to go away.
Whatever you leave in production needs to be maintainable by the next person.
This NS partner didn't even leave behind a repo of TS files, I'm just working on their transpiled output.

10/01/2025, 9:37 AMExactly that was my point too. I tend to keep script readable both in TS and JS

10/01/2025, 9:39 AMI think TS is great but I'd keep it for building SuiteApps where the customer never needs to touch the code - I wouldn't use it for regular account customisations especially if you're going to keep the TS files to yourself when you leave.

Craig
10/01/2025, 9:40 AMForget maintainable - not even a repo 😄

10/01/2025, 9:41 AMI always store both TS and JS in github. But also think it's a bad practice to edit code inside Netsuite
