It will be interesting to see how using typescript definitions work out. 
>From my experience of using them, many leave a lot to be desired from a 
strict typing point of view. A lot of people get lazy and just use 'any' 
everywhere. How will you handle union types? e.g.  string | int | 
someobject | array<some object>

I can see them being a good starting point but probably they will require 
manual changes to make user friendly Java API's.
