types reduce mistakes. And humans are pretty good at doing them.
And before you say it, no you're not an exception.
There is a reason, JS projects move as quickly to TS a soon as they grow enough. Because frankly, JS becomes unmaintainable so quickly, you don't even realize it. -
Grumm18121yWhy ? Because :
'11' + 1 = 111
'11' - 1 = 9

ccpdev21y@thebiochemic I said it's a good tool and I use it too, but the amount of love to fckng type support is unbearable. I guess most ts developers never saw the world outside and gets impressed with such simple tooling

The reason is that you can dynamically create/modify types based on variables or other types
Unlike most other languages where you just slap on a known manually created one -

Nah, it's because they started with the absolute messy shit that is JS and then tried TS, so naturally the fall in love with it.
Like if you ate chalk all your life and then discover filet mignon.
