Description

TypeScript is both a language and a set of tools to generate JavaScript, designed by Anders Hejlsberg at Microsoft to help developers write enterprise-scale JavaScript. Mastering Typescript is a golden standard for budding and experienced developers. With a structured approach that will get you up and running with Typescript quickly, this book will introduce core concepts, then build on them to help you understand (and apply) the more advanced language features. You’ll learn by doing while acquiring the best programming practices along the way. This fourth edition also covers a variety of modern JavaScript and TypeScript frameworks, comparing their strengths and weaknesses. You'll explore Angular, React, Vue, RxJs, Express, NodeJS, and others. You'll get up to speed with unit and integration testing, data transformation, serverless technologies, and asynchronous programming. Next, you’ll learn how to integrate with existing JavaScript libraries, control your compiler options, and use decorators and generics. By the end of the book, you will have built a comprehensive set of web applications, having integrated them into a single cohesive website using micro front-end techniques. This book is about learning the language, understanding when to apply its features, and selecting the framework that fits your real-world project perfectly.

Who is this book for?

If you are keen to learn TypeScript, this book will give you all the necessary knowledge and skills to tackle any TypeScript project. It will also give you an understanding of what application frameworks are out there, and which one to choose for your next project.

The book is very comprehensive, covering almost any topic from the very beginning to the expert level. And it's not only specific to TypeScript features but using JavaScript, React, Angular, Vue, Node.js, and many more technologies with TypeScript. So you definitely get more than what you'd get from online TypeScript documentation. The examples are clear and explained in detail. Definitely recommended as a reference source.Disclaimer: I received the PDF version of the book for free to review and share my thoughts.

As a person who has been using TypeScript exclusively for over 5 years, I was initially skeptical about whether this book would deliver on its promise of mastering TypeScript. I'm happy to say I was proven wrong. This book is an excellent and comprehensive resource on TypeScript that provides value for newcomers and experts alike. I even learned a few things I wasn't aware of in the second chapter, which covered an introduction to the type system.The chapters on decorators and JavaScript integration are excellent. The later chapters that cover framework-specific applications provide value by accommodating for a wide array of readers. I learned TypeScript by writing the code and struggling through error messages, reading blog posts, and searching for answers on Google. I wish I had this book when I first started, because I would have saved myself a lot of frustration. If you're just learning TypeScript for the first time, or just trying to fill gaps in your existing knowledge, I cannot recommend this book enough.

A fantastic resource for obtaining a rock solid understanding of typescript. The author does a great job of giving a thorough explanation of concepts ranging from beginner to advanced and does it in a way that I haven't really seen done elsewhere. Fundamentals aside, I really enjoyed the chapters on observables, micro front ends, and the different frameworks that typescript can be integrated with. Going forward this will definitely be reference material for my day to day work and learning.

Either you're new to Typescript or looking to learn about the latest additions to this awesome language, this is the book for you.The book follows a structure from basics to advanced providing examples that you can use to code along as you progress through the book to consolidate your learning experience.From setting up your environment and the basics of Typescript to primitive types, best practices, object-oriented principles, generics, and asynchronous techniques such as callbacks, promises, and async-await, decorators, integration with Javascript, which may be useful if you're planning to migrate your javascript project to typescript, and other scenarios, and strict and no compiler options, this books provides you a solid base to help you learn and know how to apply the best practices and techniques to make your project type-safe with typescript.One nice surprise was a chapter dedicated to RxJs, where the author provides an explanation of what it is and why it's so important such as examples of some of the most used operators and the Chapter about TDD using Jest, where you can learn more about this technique to build quality from the ground up to your project using one of the best testing frameworks, Protractor and Selenium are also covered if you're looking for an end-to-end testing solution.The author then takes you to an intro to Angular, React, and Vue, building parts of a solution that later you'll be able to put together as a whole using on micro-front-end technique.There's a chapter also about Node and Express and AWS Serverless API.Definitely, a book to keep around and check every now and then when you find a case you might want to improve, especially when you find the `any` type in your codebase and you want to improve it.
