This has significant value but is a sizable undertaking. Some things to think about:

1. Typing for the State API + how to make that cleaner with typescript (more advanced features should help here)
2. DB interaction, persisters, etc... TS has different practices as it's a largely FE language. Can we do something smart with next here? Or is this a lower-level concern?
3. Ditto with tracking -- how do we access the local filesystem?
4. How do we ensure feature/functionality parity with python (shared test-suite? Best effort for now?)
5. Generator API

Really is a somewhat complicated port -- it'll be a different API with very little shared code (exception is the telemetry server).
