TypeScript in 50 Lessons

According to several developer surveys, TypeScript is one of the most loved programming languages. But the sheer amount of material, perspectives, and use cases can be overwhelming.

I was no exception. To me, at first, TypeScript was JavaScript for Java developers. Oh, how wrong I was! TypeScript can be much more than that – a subtle tool, a simple layer atop JavaScript, the programming language that drives the web.

If you ever find yourself:

* writing JavaScript with libraries and frameworks you barely know
* writing JavaScript with other developers
* writing JavaScript that deals with back-end data
* writing JavaScript that your future self has to continue working on

then TypeScript will do right by you.

TypeScript in 50 lessons will give you a gentle, human introduction to TypeScript. But we don’t stop there. Right around the midpoint, we take the leap into structural type systems and why they are so great and useful for JavaScript. It’s a deep dive that will make you an expert in type systems.
