About React TypeScript

You all wonder why we need TypeScript when we are just happy creating a React App using JavaScript. Now, I was at that stage as well but having used TypeScript for a while I can safely say that it has improved the overall development experience for me.

• With static type checking, you get to learn potential bugs as you're typing the code, then heading to the browser and figuring out at run time.

• It also provides a way to describe the shape of an object hence providing better documentation and autocomplete.

• TypeScript even makes maintenance and refactoring large code bases much easier.

As you can see there are some pretty good points to help you make the decision of adopting TypeScript.

• installing react typescript
