Comment on To Type or Not to Type?parent

Comments

I don't have any problems getting functions to work or reading the docs to use APIs, so typescript isn't solving anything for me there.

I wouldn't mind using a very minimal amount of typescript, basically JS with proper Enums, typed function parameters, and return types, but there seems to be a ton of hurdles to jump just to get started with it.

If I was working for a company, I'd be happy to spend 6 months of their time learning how to use it properly, but I don't think I can justify it for myself right now, I don't have the time to be fighting with a code editor for weeks/months.
