How Typed is Your Framework?
summary
Shows concrete failures and fixes: TypeScript does not stop runtime typos when frameworks expose unsafe APIs so migrating alone does not eliminate errors, examples include legacy string refs and runtime ReferenceError reproductions. Demonstrates using tsc to fail CI, cites Vue 3 rewrite and Angular history, and proves React strengths with practical patterns like extracting prop shapes via the Parameters type, building wrappers that inherit HTML props, and a generic virtualized list that types render items and the as prop successfully.
