Introduction to TypeScript for Modern Development

Why TypeScript?

TypeScript is a superset of JavaScript that adds static type definitions. It helps catch errors early, improves code maintainability, and enhances developer experience.

Key Benefits

• Type safety at compile time
• Better IDE support and autocomplete
• Improved code documentation
• Easier refactoring
• Better collaboration in teams

Getting Started

npm install -g typescript
tsc --init

Basic Types

let name: string = "Homocentric";
let age: number = 5;
let isActive: boolean = true;

TypeScript provides a robust type system that helps build more reliable applications.
