Overview of this book

TypeScript is the future of JavaScript. Having been designed for the development of large applications, it is now being widely incorporated in cutting-edge projects such as Angular 2. Adopting TypeScript results in more robust software - software that is more scalable and performant. It's scale and performance that lies at the heart of every project that features in this book. The lessons learned throughout this book will arm you with everything you need to build some truly amazing projects. You'll build a complete single page app with Angular 2, create a neat mobile app using NativeScript, and even build a Pac Man game with TypeScript. As if fun wasn't enough, you'll also find out how to migrate your legacy codebase from JavaScript to TypeScript. This book isn't just for developers who want to learn - it's for developers who want to develop. So dive in and get started on these TypeScript projects.

Summary


In this chapter, we have looked at various steps involved in migrating a project from JavaScript to TypeScript. We saw how a project can be migrated gradually. We looked at various ways to update an old project so that it can use new JavaScript features and how it can use the type system of TypeScript. You can use your knowledge from the previous chapters to make the project even better.
