The concluding section covers using TypeScript in your projects. On completing, you will understand step-by-step use of TypeScript and benefit from its strengths; you will also know how to use a Type system on top of JavaScript and how to transform projects by using TypeScript to your advantage. What you will learn: How to transform a JavaScript project into a TypeScript project; How to use create a Node.js project with handy tools to make your life easier; How to use techniques in TypeScript that will help you in writing better code; Creating ES module TypeScript projects that can be used in Node.js, Deno and the browser.
