TypeScript at Slack – Several People Are Coding

TypeScript at Slack – Several People Are Coding: "We decided to use Microsoft’s TypeScript, which combines static type analysis with a compiler. Modern JavaScript is valid TypeScript, meaning that one can use TypeScript without changing a single line of code. This allowed us to use “gradual typing” by enabling the compiler and the static analysis early, without suspending work on critical bug fixes or new features.
In practice, switching the analysis and the compiler on without changing code means that TypeScript will immediately attempt to understand your code"
