I use typescript both professionally and in my hobby programming.
I consider typescript to be a tolerable flavor of javascript. I am not specialized in front-end development, so my opinion is probably biased by how most backend languages tend to be more strict.
Here’s a series of tools/libraries/dependencies I’ve used so far from the node ecosystem which I liked:
- react
- ts-node / tsx
- pnpm
- tanstack
- vite
- vinxi
- shadcn
- biomeJS
- yeoman
