Hello developers, I'd like to open a discussion on getting Typescript into zeppelin.
http://www.typescriptlang.org/ Typescript brings type system onto javascript codes, which improves productivity working with huge js codes. One of the really good point of Typescript is, 100% compatibility with javascript, that is, if we just change xxx.js into xxx.ts, it just works. Then we can add some classes and type annotation gradually. Some frontend guys in our company already compared similar technology like coffeescript and finally using Typescript and they are really satisfied. On the other hand, IDE support could be a limitation of Typescript. IntelliJ ultimate edition ($199) or Visual Studio can be used to utilize full editing feature of Typescript (auto completion, etc) I can confirm syntax highlighting feature for Typescript works on Sublime editor. (Of course you can use any editor or IDE to edit ts, tough.) Any idea on this topic is welcomed! Regards, Kevin
