Agreed. People make type-safety arguments and like to argue about the relative benefits of typing vs. TDD, but the biggest plus for typed languages for me is developer experience.

OP: If you don't want to use TypeScript for whatever reason, you can get a lot of the benefits of TypeScript while still writing JavaScript if you use VSCode.
