Answer 2

Allamprabhu Hiremath Typescript is a superset (improvment) to Javascript that adds strongly-typed variables, better classes and interfaces, enums and many more new useful features. Typescript is compiled using typescript compiler that turns typescript code into vanilla JS code so you can write modern code that runs on old browsers.
