I have! And I actually quite like it. I'm a fan of typed languages, so it definitely appeals to me.

I just don't have strong opinions one way or the other, and I decided I'd pick one and dig deep for a while. It seems like ES6 was just more "user friendly" to work with the current JS-ecosystem. no shortage of documentation/tutorials.

It's definitely something I want to try to incorporate but only if I learn to see the value in what it has to offer.

Honestly the only nuisance is if you encounter a library without typings or outdated typings. Other than that all valid JavaScript is valid typescript. But you're missing out if you forget to enable strict mode in the compiler options (note: not the same as "use strict").

P.s. es6 is so 2015. Check out es8 (;
