  • Details

TypeScript is a new language from Microsoft that is a superset of JavaScript and provides some awesome functionality such as static typing, better IDE support, and an easy to use way to develop classes & interfaces. This session will use the underused medium of Schwarzenegger films to explain just what Type Script is, why you might want to use it & when you should avoid it (like that terrible movie where Arnie got pregnant).
