In fact, one of the best thing about typescript is that you can bring in almost everything you know about javascript into the game.

It took me few days to pick it up when moving from JS to typescript. I don't get it when people say it is complex or adds complexity.

js is the complexity people are worried about. the number 1 reason i'm considering going to flutter over react is having to learn js
