TypeScript: the typed superset of JS

This is an ongoing work. See this repo, until new advice, as a collection of notes. Thanks!

Notes

As I did years ago with React (tutorial that I should resume someday; please, forgive my laziness), I decided to put (and publish) some notes related to the new kid on the block, the JS Superset TypeScript.

Later, we will use typescript locally (feel free to install it as a global package: npm install -g typescript). But, for the moment, we consume repl.it
