    Pros and cons. What TypeScript does well, and what to expect.

    Pros

    • Completely free and open source.
    • Error detection in editor (excellent DX).
    • Safer refactoring thanks to types.
    • Large adoption and mature ecosystem.

    Cons

    • Initial learning curve.
    • Compilation step before execution.
    • Overhead for very small projects.

    When it makes sense. Keep TypeScript, or challenge it?

    Keep if

    • You develop in JavaScript on medium to large projects.
    • You want to catch errors in the editor, not at runtime.

    Challenge if

    • You write simple, pure JavaScript.
    • You have a single script of a few lines.
