- 65. Appendix
- 67. Why all the love? 1. Modular structure 2. Friendly with all editors 3. Scalable 4. Easy to learn 5. Easy to debug so less bugs! 1. Has Types 2. Good tooling and library support 3. Powers major production apps 4. Devs can be onboard fairly quickly 5. Should work on both client and server 😍
- 68. Evaluating the Popularity of a Programming Language 🤓
- 70. 15 Most Popular Languages On GitHub by Opened Pull Requests With Percentage Change from Previous Year
- 71. Bonus Chapter - Jingle Time! 🎵 • You know that one part of class you weren’t really expecting but that you ended up enjoying anyways? • This is that part. TypeScript 101 We just had so much fun ECMAScript was not enough We want JavaScript that scales And with types and transpilation There is no way we can fail TypeScript is super anal Plus we get way less bugs Just useeeee TypeScript.
