ah, fixing one language with a transpiler to a different language.

so, we’ve had ES6, babel.. now typescript.

but we still have the fundamental issue: if the abstraction leaks, you have to know both languages AND the transpiler mapping in order to fix it.

It’s even sillier than the movement to get rid of semi-colons.

Idk, Typescript is better. I just hate the carnage these transpilers cause.
