The Complete TypeScript Programming Guide for Web Developers

A lot of people became acquainted with TypeScript because of Angular 2, but many stayed with TypeScript even after Angular 2. Although, it received recognition as a brilliant language because of its use in Angular 2 (you need to learn TypeScript to code in Angular 2), these days it’s become an independent language that is being used across the industry.

Why TypeScript though? Well, for starters TypeScript is a simple and easy language that allows developers to code with ease. It basically a superset of JavaScript, which means if you already know JavaScript, then you don’t even have to learn a new language, just a few new features. TypeScript can also use all the features of JavaScript and ES6 as well as additional features that are not a part of JavaScript.

The best part of TypeScript? It’s amazing compiler! TypeScript offers static type-checking that checks for errors during compile time, so that you do not come across errors during testing or post compilation, making it easier and faster to spot errors and fix them before testing your app.

Sounds like an awesome language, doesn’t it? Want to get your hands on this futuristic language? Well, here you are. We have designed a brilliant course just for you to start learning this programming language. While this course requires you to have a basic understanding of JavaScript, everything else will be taught to you from scratch. You will learn basic commands, how TypeScript can be compiled with JavaScript and also how can it be integrated with JavaScript. You will learn how to use the fancy static type checking and annotations, as well as adding types to variables and parameters.

You will learn how to use the power of object-oriented programming to make classes for defining objects, rather than ES5 prototype based object interfaces. The course will also include integrating ES2015 including arrow functions, block level scoping (using let and const instead of var), destructing arrays and objects. That’s not all, in addition to learning the theory behind TypeScript, you will learn how to create a complete project from the ground up. You will design a ToDos App using TypeScript and Webpack.

Typescript is slowly becoming an amazing addition to JavaScript, allowing developers to advance their skills and expand their tool set. This course has all the essentials that you need to get started learning TypeScript.

Here’s a summary of everything you will learn in this course:

A detailed introduction to TypeScript, including what it is, its features and how to set up the environment

Different types that can be used – strings, booleans, arrays, tuples, and enoms

Advanced features of TypeScript, including interface and generics

How to integrate ES2015 and make use of its features such as arrow functions and template literals

Using Classes and Objects within TypeScript – inheritance, modifiers, adding interfaces to classes, etc.

Creating a hands-on project using TypeScript and Webpack, where you will learn how to set up the environment, automate typescript compiling, adding todo classes with interface, static typing, block scoping with let and const, and even local storage implementation for persisting data
