Programming language TypeScript 3.9 cuts compile times by up to 40%, says Microsoft
Summary
Microsoft released TypeScript in 2012 for large JavaScript projects, and its quickly become one of the most popular programming languages for developers. TypeScript was created by the creator of C#, Anders Hejlsberg, who continues to maintain the language today. SEE: How to build a successful developer career (free PDF) Through several pull requests, the TypeScript team have optimized "certain pathological cases involving large unions, intersections, conditional types, and mapped types" to achieve huge compile time improvements. SEE: Microsofts VS Code 1.45 is out: GitHub integration plus JavaScript debugger update Microsoft expects to release the TypeScript 4.0 beta in late June and, after a round of release candidates, it plans to roll out TypeScript 4.0 on August 18. The advantage of static type-checking is that developers can see errors in code before running it or saving files.
