Matt Bierner - SeattleJS Conference 2017
summary
TypeScript’s checkJs brings real type checking to plain JavaScript, catching concrete issues like wrong argument counts, incorrect argument types, assigning strings to boolean state, and uninitialized properties that broke a React sticker list. It works in VS Code, Atom and Visual Studio, provides quick fixes (add import, initialize in constructor), enables per-file // @ts-check or project-wide checkJs: true, and runs in CI via tsc --noEmit -p jsconfig.json so errors surface before runtime.
