Korshub's take
The fundamentals of TypeScript, without the fluff
This crash course explains why TypeScript exists — as a superset of JavaScript built to add features faster than the JavaScript standards process allows — and then gets straight into the fundamentals you need to start using it.
What you'll cover
- Why TypeScript was created and how it relates to JavaScript
- How TypeScript compiles down to broadly compatible JavaScript
- The core language fundamentals and how to apply them
Who it's for
Developers who need TypeScript skills quickly, often because they're picking up a framework like Angular that expects it.
Key takeaway
This isn't an exhaustive reference — it's a fast, practical on-ramp for developers who don't have time to spend weeks on a new technology before they can be productive with it.
About this course
TypeScript is a superset of JavaScript, which means that is language that was created to add features to JavaScript. You might be asking yourself why it was created and why not just add those features directly to JavaScript.
Sometimes language foundations take time to implement features because the committee has to approve it, test and get feedback before requests are answered. The solution for that is to create another language that adds functionality to the language we need, and thats where TypesScript comes in.
TypeScript has many advanced features that plain JavaScript doesn't have yet but the good news is that we can start using it now since TypeScript compiles JavaScript ES5 which at this moment is the most compatible version of JavaScript for all browsers.
Most people that want to learn TypeScript its because they need the skills to use with some Frameworks like Angular.
My goal with this courses is just give your the fundamentals of the language, show you what TypeScript is and how to use it. We as developers don't have time neither can we afford to spend too much time on any technology.
