I may have shaved a few years here and there to calculate that decade ;)

I'm still waiting for a browser to come with an inbuilt server like netscaape 3.

You do now understand that TypeScript didn't lose any of the flexibility, power, or paradigms of JavaScript, since it's by definition a strict superset of JavaScript, so it only adds programming paradigms, not subtracts them, right? Or do you disagree with Andrew Hejlsberg, its designer, or the definition of "strict superset"?

>TypeScript is an open-source programming language developed and maintained by Microsoft. It is a strict syntactical superset of JavaScript, and adds optional static typing to the language.
