TypeScript is a typed superset of JavaScript
that compiles to plain javascript.It enables to write the JavaScript the way we
really think of it. We can write JavaScript in any OS, run in any browser and
host in any host. It is a language for application-scale JavaScript
development. Unlike JavaScript code,
however, TypeScript program code must go through a compiler--one is available
as open source from Microsoft. The output is formatted as JavaScript, and that
code can run on any browser, and be incorporated into any JavaScript framework
or server-side technology, such as node.js.
By compiling the code, TypeScript can offer
many features typically associated with more traditional programming languages,
such as Java and C++.TypeScript offers static typing, which requires developers
to define the data type of a variable before using that variable. It also
features generics which allows
methods to be applied on different data types.
