TypeScript High Performance

By: Ajinkya Kher

Overview of this book

<p>In a world where a tiny decrease in frames per second impacts customer engagement greatly, writing highly scalable code is more of a necessity than a luxury. Using TypeScript you get type checking during development. This gives you the power to write optimized code quickly. This book is also a solid tool to those who’re curious to understand the impact of performance in production, and it is of the greatest aid to the proactive developers who like to be cognizant of and avoid the classic pitfalls while coding.</p> <p>The book will starts with explaining the efficient implementation of basic data Structures, data types, and flow control. You will then learn efficient use of advanced language constructs and asynchronous programming. Further, you'll learn different configurations available with TSLint to improve code quality and performance. Next, we'll introduce you to the concepts of profiling and then we deep dive into profiling JS with several tools such as firebug, chrome, fiddler. Finally, you'll learn techniques to build and deploy real world large scale TypeScript applications.</p>

Summary


In this chapter, we covered the advanced language constructs that TypeScript offers, and understood how they can be leveraged, and the scenarios where it makes the most sense to use them. Recognizing these scenarios and then knowing ho

So far, we have covered the various different data constructs that TypeScript offers, visited some of the popular data structures and algorithms that quite frankly form the backbone of not just frontend mobile/web development but any kind of development across the stack, and understood the variable declarations and the concepts of namespacing in TypeScript. While covering these topics, we understood the massive impact the efficiency of implementation has on the performance of your application.

In the next chapter, we will take a look at probably one of the most important concepts in TypeScript, asynchronous programming, understand the mechanism behind the scenes that makes it work, and cover the various different ways in which you can implement asynchrony...
