Hey I heard you in a podcast recently, im a fan! But yes they are. It's fun for a developer to get code-hints and "not have to worry about runtime errors" but if you already know JS, introducing typescript is just going to make your project bloated. I know this is a very unpopular opinion in programming, because programmers love playing word-games, love thinking about type and data. I love it too. But react with typescript is ugh.

Appreciate it.

But no, that's how bugs happened. Especially when you're going into it like "I know js well enough, I won't have bugs".

Like numbers changing their types because a js library decided to swap what it returns. That's how you lose money.
