  • TypeScript types let developers define interfaces between software components and gain insight into the behaviour of existing JavaScript libraries.
  • TypeScript starts from the syntax and semantics millions of JavaScript developers know today.
  • With TypeScript, developers can use existing JavaScript code, incorporate popular JavaScript libraries, and be called from other JavaScript code.
  • TypeScript transpiles to JavaScript code which runs on any browser, in , or in any other ES3-compatible environment.
  • TypeScript as a language extension adds (amongst others) the following features:
    • Type annotations and compile-time type checking
    • Namespaces
    • Interfaces
    • Enums (to define a set of named constants)
    • Generics (classes, types, and functions that can work over a variety of types)
