Session: TypeScript: JavaScript development at Scale
Thursday 16.45 - 17.35
Room: Gangnam Style
TypeScript is a new programming language aiming to improve the development experience of writing and maintaining application-scale JavaScript programs. TypeScript is a superset of JavaScript, adding optional static typing to improve the tooling experience, as well as EcmaScript 6 style classes and modules to help organize large programs. The TypeScript compiler is open source and translates to plain JavaScript that runs in any browser on any platform.
