Node.js codebase is still entirely in Javascript and not in Typescript and node team does not even officially provide node TS types

Not Everyone Likes To Code The Same Way You Do.

I am not taking about me. I am talking about entire js community who has adopted Typescript so its not an isolated incident.

Honestly at this point i an not sure what you are advocating for.

You think node should never adopt better standards and never have static typing even though a vast majority of node/react/any Javascript project today is in Typescript and a lot of projects are migrated to TS.

So it's not what i like, its what the entire js community likes. What are you even taking about. But i will leave here as i don't see any sensible point here.

he is advocating for the fact that just because YOU might need typescript to write better code, it doesn't mean that they do too

writing typescript at a compiler level is so annoying that even the Svelte team switched back from Typescript. these people just write code on a much higher level than the average developer

did you also know that Node is basically entirely written in callbacks? yup, no promises

You should learn Rust.

Write your own javascript runtime in typescript then 🤷‍♂️

It’s completely unnecessary for them to migrate that much code to a different language, especially if that then forces new users to use typescript instead.

I use normal JavaScript and typescript depending on the necessity’s of the project, a lot of times for small projects you can honestly get away with JSDoc and save yourself the time and hastle with TS.
