Getting Started with TypeScript

TypeScript is a typed superset of JavaScript that compiles to plain JavaScript. It offers static type checking, interfaces, generics, and many modern features that make large-scale application development more manageable.

Why TypeScript?

• Type Safety: Catch errors at compile time, not runtime.
• Better Tooling: Autocompletion, refactoring, and navigation work better.
• Self-Documenting: Types serve as living documentation.

Getting Started

Install TypeScript globally or as a dev dependency:

npm install -D typescript

Create a tsconfig.json and start writing .ts files. Run npx tsc to compile.
