I haven't used TypeScript in a classically OOP way and it never felt like I was being urged to do so either.

It becomes quite OOP if you use it with React

Huh? I've worked with TypeScript + React for the last 5yrs and the only time I see OOP is when someone's done something wrong.

Maybe you're thinking of old react with class based components?

Proving that adding the class keyword to the ECMAScript spec was a mistake that leads folks down a path they should not travel 🙃

I completely agree. I taught JS/TS for 5yrs and I always emphasised that the 'class' keyword was just syntactic sugar for what was already available in prototype inheritance of JS.
