What I'm up to

Updated on 2025-03-13

Started some migrations of JS projects to TypeScript. There are a few moves from TypeScript & node that influenced me to do this:

1. Node’s type stripping - allows execution of TypeScript files that only contains erasable TypeScript syntax.
2. TypeScript’s erasable syntax only - a flag to tell tsc to throw error on syntax that are not erasable (e.g., enums, namespaces, and class parameter properties)
3. TypeScript native compiler - promises 10x faster typescript compilation
