Summary

In this chapter, we learned why type safety is crucial in modern software development and how using TypeScript with Fastify can help catch errors and bugs early in development. The chapter also covered how using TypeScript with Fastify can improve the developer experience by providing better code completion, type inference, and the ability to auto-generate the documentation site for our APIs.

Congratulations on reaching the final chapter of this book! Throughout this journey, we have learned about the Fastify web framework and how it can help us build high-performance web applications.
