TypeScript Essentials

TypeScript is a superset JavaScript that allows you to be more productive in JavaScript programming. It is very popular and a favorite among JavaScript developers. TypeScript syntax is easy to learn for entry-level web developers who have JavaScript experience and a basic understanding of object-oriented languages such as Java or C#. This course will teach you the syntax and show you how TypeScript's static code analyzer and excellent IDE support can make you a more efficient and effective coder. You'll examine inheritance and how it works, you'll also explore interfaces and why you'll want them (even though classes can achieve the same functionality), and you'll learn how you can integrate other JavaScript libraries into your TypeScript jobs. Before you start the course, ensure that your computer is up-to-date with Node.js, Visual Studio Code, and Chrome browser.
