TypeScript for C# Developers

TypeScript is a typed superset of JavaScript that compiles to JavaScript. It's a free cross-platform, cross-browser, open source language that enables developers to build large scale enterprise applications with JavaScript. Many mission critical web apps use JavaScript, and can benefit from the parallel organization and working style between TypeScript and C#. Learn about the TypeScript language and how it can help you write and maintain better JavaScript code if you have a background as a C# (or .NET) developer. You'll also learn how to organize and structure TypeScript code.
