JavaScript alternative (TypeScript) and its effectiveness in web development

Abstract

JavaScript is the most popular language used to build websites and web applications. It has some limitations such Lack of static typing and limited support for object oriented programming. TypeScript, a language developed by Microsoft, addresses these issues by providing a statically typed, object oriented alternative to JavaScript. This thesis evaluates how effective TypeScript is for his web development by comparing features such as static typing, interfaces, and modules with those of JavaScript. We also explore how TypeScript impacts the productivity, code organization, maintainability, and reliability of large scale web applications. Conduct a case study of a real web development project to compare results using TypeScript and JavaScript.
