TypeScript is a superset of JavaScript that adds static typing to the language, providing enhanced tooling and code quality. It allows developers to catch errors during development and improves code maintainability through the use of explicit data types.

TypeScript compiles down to standard JavaScript, making it compatible with existing codebases and browser environments. It introduces features like interfaces, enums, and classes, enhancing code structure and modularity.

All of our recent Vue.js frontends have been written using TypeScript and it is now our default choice.
