Most language courses immediately zoom in on syntax, but it’s beneficial to stay zoomed out for a minute and get clear on what TypeScript is and why you might use it. In this course, TypeScript: The Big Picture, you'll view a fast-paced, pragmatic, and technical overview of TypeScript. First, you'll learn some reasons for using TypeScript. Next, you'll discover tooling, basic syntax, and how TypeScript can be used both by itself and with other frameworks. Finally, you’ll explore the main features TypeScript adds to the JavaScript development world, with a focus on writing Enterprise-level applications. When you're finished...
