Riassunto

Broaden your skill set by learning TypeScript and applying your knowledge to build real-world applications

Key Features:

• Quickly get started writing TypeScript code with hands-on exercises and activities
• Develop new skills that can be applied at work or in your own side projects
• Build your understanding, boost your confidence, and advance your programming career

Book Description:

By learning TypeScript, you can start writing cleaner, more readable code that's easier to understand and less likely to contain bugs. What's not to like?

It's certainly an appealing prospect, but learning a new language can be challenging, and it's not always easy to know where to begin. This book is the perfect place to start. It provides the ideal platform for JavaScript programmers to practice writing eloquent, productive TypeScript code.

Unlike many theory-heavy books, The TypeScript Workshop balances clear explanations with opportunities for hands-on practice. You'll quickly be up and running building functional websites, without having to wade through pages and pages of history and dull, dry fluff. Guided exercises clearly demonstrate how key concepts are used in the real world, and each chapter is rounded off with an activity that challenges you to apply your new knowledge in the context of a realistic scenario.

Whether you're a hobbyist eager to get cracking on your next project, or a professional developer looking to unlock your next promotion, pick up a copy and make a start! Whatever your motivation, by the end of this book, you'll have the confidence and understanding to make it happen with TypeScript.

What You Will Learn:

• Configure a professional TypeScript development environment
• Explore how to use primitive and complex data types
• Incorporate types into popular npm (Node package manager) libraries
• Design systems that use asynchronous behavior
• Implement object-oriented programming to model real-world scenarios
• Get to grips with modern UI design by combining React with TypeScript

Who this book is for:

The TypeScript Workshop is for software developers who want to broaden their skill set by learning the TypeScript programming language. To get the most from this TypeScript book, you should have basic knowledge of JavaScript or experience using another similar programming language.

Rayon Hunte has been working with Angular and TypeScript for more than 3 years. He has built complex web applications, such as a vehicle management system and a land management web application for the local government. TypeScript has enabled Rayon to leverage his knowledge of JavaScript and web frameworks to build complex, scalable web applications. Having been a development team lead, Rayon has firsthand knowledge of how large projects can become too complicated and impossible to modify and scale as time passes and more features are added. He realizes that adding strong typing to your projects is essential in modern web development and for him, TypeScript has been a real game-changer.

Matt Morgan has been a software engineer, architect, and technology leader for more than 20 years. He's worked with many technologies over the years, such as RDBMS, Java, and Node.js, and seen many generations of web frameworks rise and fall. He is an occasional OSS contributor and a frequent blogger. Matt is most interested in finding ways to improve workflows and developer experience. A great toolchain is a force multiplier.

Wekoslav Stefanovski has about two decades of professional developer experience using a variety of development technologies. Has been using JavaScript since the previous millennium and has a long and fruitful love/hate relationship with it. On the other hand, with TypeScript it was love at first compilation, and it's only gotten better since then. His passions include building better programs and building better programmers.
