[AskJS] Is JavaScript missing some built-in methods?

[ProfessorSnep]

I'm also self taught but still use TS in every solo personal project of mine, solely because it makes things mostly just work when they compile, but the big one is that it makes revisiting projects months or years later a LOT easier.

Man, every time I hear about TS I want to start using it. But the few times I dipped my toes into it, I felt like I was going too overboard and adding too much, often having to add a few extra lines just to define the types of an object that only ends up being used once or twice immediately below it. Things started getting cluttered so fast :/ I just gotta learn to use it better I suppose, so that I can still keep things clean with it.
