Its key value proposition is the introduction of optional static typing. Whereas JavaScript checks types at runtime (<\/span><b>dynamic typing<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">), TypeScript allows for type checks during compilation, or more precisely, during transpilation. This process is managed by the <\/span><b>TypeScript compiler (tsc)<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, which analyzes TypeScript code, checks types, and transforms it into standard <a href=\"https:\/\/datascientest.com\/en\/javascript-unveiled-a-comprehensive-guide-to-the-language-of-the-web\">JavaScript<\/a> code executable by any browser or Node.js environment.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The primary benefit of this &#8220;type checking&#8221; is the early identification of errors.

Firstly, <\/span><b>code clarity<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> is greatly enhanced.

This proactive assistance allows developers to write TypeScript code more quickly and confidently.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Thirdly, TypeScript facilitates scaling applications. Types act as contracts within the code, ensuring that various parts of an application interact predictably. This is especially valuable in complex architectures such as microservices or when <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/datascientest.com\/en\/all-about-d3-js\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">integrating third-party libraries<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.
