OP follow this advice, that's the best learning resource for modern JS.

The #1 thing you can do for yourself first though is accepting that what you learned 20 years ago probably means dick. JS has radically changed and that's OK. Go into this book with that mindset and you will come out a champ.

After completion of Eloquent JavaScript and a decent comfort level with modern JS, is there an equally great resource to then transition into TypeScript?

Typescript docs are good [0], and it's incredibly easy to pick up, since it's just javascript with type annotations.
