I’ll be downvoted again but I agree.
How can you even form an opinion on this if, as you stated in that thread, you literally have no idea what typescript is and are just a beginner in js? You got down voted for saying typescript is unnecessary without even knowing what it is or what the thing you're working with's limitations are, which is a pretty objectively braindead stance to take. You're a beginner js developer, you have no idea what you're talking about when it comes to preferences of ts vs js, just that all of the beginner level stuff you have tried to do works in js so therefore typescript or frameworks must be unnecessary
After this and saying that you're a beginner to JS, I would instead suggest spending time to develop perspective from a place of knowledge and experience rather than... I guess, being proudly ignorant?
The fact that you're doubling down on your ignorance is quite problematic. Typescript is not an enterprise system that forms arcane JS. It's literally JS with a slight adjustment that allows you to say "also this is this type". You write JS the entire time and can "disable" the typescript at any location you need to not be typed.
if you're a beginner, and you post an opinion and lots of people say that many years of professional experience make them disagree with you, why would you not take that on board? I wish you well on your learning journey. at some point you'll outgrow vanilla js and you'll have learned enough to configure transpilation and webpack etc. it'll be a good day.
lol, that's hilarious. Thanks, you made my day.
Another junior with a god complex it's funny how writing an if statement make you feel like you know everything in the galaxy
