Why TypeScript? In this session, we will explore the benefits of using TypeScript in your JavaScript-based application. Whether you are developing a client app in Angular or React, or are building a node.js server application, TypeScript can help standardize your code and make it easier to maintain.

The focus of this session is on the features and benefits of using TypeScript and how it can be used to implement Object Oriented Development practices into your JavaScript code. Framework-specific examples (such as Angular) will be kept to a minimum.

Experience in developing with JavaScript and Object Oriented Development may be helpful but are not required to benefit from this session.

You will learn:

• Understanding TypeScript fundamentals
• Adding TypeScript support to any JavaScript-based application
• How to benefit from Object Oriented Design practices
