Welcome to the TypeScript Handbook! 🚀 This guide provides comprehensive documentation on TypeScript, a statically typed superset of JavaScript that compiles to JavaScript. TypeScript enhances developer productivity with features like type inference, interfaces, and type annotations.
Key Features of TypeScript
- Static Typing: Catch errors at compile time instead of runtime. 💡
- Type Inference: Automatically deduce types where possible. 🔍
- Interfaces: Define the shape of objects. 📜
- Classes: Support object-oriented programming. 🏗️
- Modules: Organize code into reusable components. 📦
Getting Started
- Install TypeScript using npm or yarn. 📦
- Configure your
tsconfig.json
file for project settings. 📄 - Start coding with type annotations! � keyboard
TypeScript vs JavaScript
TypeScript adds type safety to JavaScript without changing its behavior. For example:
let message: string = "Hello, TypeScript!";
This ensures message
can only hold string values. 🛡️
