- Extend existing APIs
- This project is useful in any environment where Lua code is accepted, with the powerful option of simply
- declaring any existing API using TypeScript declaration files.
-
-
- Type Safety
- Static types can ease the mental burden of writing programs, by automatically tracking information the
- programmer would otherwise have to track mentally in some fashion. Types serve as documentation for yourself
- and other programmers and provide a ‘gradient’ that tells you what terms make sense to write.
-
-
- IDE Support
- Types enable JavaScript developers to use highly-productive development tools and practices like static
- checking and code refactoring when developing JavaScript applications. TypeScript extensions are available
- for many text editors.
