TypeScript Ruined My Life (In a Good Way)
summary
TypeScript makes concrete claims: TypeScript + React compiles to working apps, it documents and enforces APIs, and it caught DOM and undefined bugs in a Shopify dashboard and a Black Friday/Cyber Monday live view that were built with it and shipped successfully. Only one of several early Flow experiments lands in production, most packages already have types via DefinitelyTyped, and the workflow uses tsc and Parcel plus VS Code type hints and Polaris component typings.
