It's probably worth it. I always use Typescript with React projects, as typing your props will make things a lot clearer. If you're using VSCode, the intellisense is very useful.
However, if you're just making a node CLI or writing a small Lambda or something, Typescript is probably not worth it. I don't believe you need Typescript with absolutely every project, but for the more complex frontend projects it will end up saving a lot of time.
I find building Node CLIs to be a lot easier and less error-prone if you use `clime` or `oclif`. You can use `oclif` with raw JS, but it's kind of nasty compared to TypeScript.
