A higher up wrote off a potential coder for blowing off typescript.
TS is really amazing to have, but holy crud it's by far the biggest hurdle you can make for yourself. Lint is already a lot of no fun debating versus the computer, 90% not really valuable to me. Arguing with TS to do something valid is a miserable time hole.
And then there's how much pain suffering & woe one takes on for having to maintain the build toolchain.
I'm still pro TS but it took a while to not detest every minute of using it. I still see & understand. And honestly good tests make the "code quality" concern feel not so true to me.
