TypeScript has become an essential tool in modern web development. In this guide, we'll explore why TypeScript is gaining popularity and how to get started with it.

What is TypeScript?

TypeScript is a strongly typed programming language that builds on JavaScript. It adds optional static types, classes, and interfaces to help you write more robust code.

Key Benefits

1. Static Typing: Catch errors before runtime
2. Better IDE Support: Enhanced autocomplete and refactoring
3. Object-Oriented Features: Classes and interfaces
4. JavaScript Compatibility: All valid JavaScript is valid TypeScript

Getting Started

// Your first TypeScript code
function greet(name: string): string {
  return `Hello, ${name}!`;
}

const message = greet("TypeScript");
console.log(message);
