Why We Chose Typescript

3 times faster with zero proof? Java has similar REST frameworks, notably Jersey and Spring Boot. There's also the Play/Dropwizard crowd and Vert.x . Look at spring boot code vs flask, it's almost identical.

Java libraries, particularly those maintained by Google and other tech giants are some of the most solid code ever written. I doubt Python or any other language comes close to the quality of popular Java libraries.

I still don't see how dynamic typing helps with speed? Any Decent IDE will fill in the types for you so you don't even need to key then mostly

Actually develop in spring boot vs flask, and you'll see just how much faster it is to code in flask. Spring Boot has many peculiarities and boiler plate you have to deal with. Flask just works.

You complain about proof and then you throw out this line.

There is no proof of anything in any comments in this thread.

Hahaha yeah I just realized I've precipitated a classic flamewar, oops. I'll recuse myself from making further comments on this thread. :)
