## Resource

Lucas and Luna dive into TypeScript's explosive growth in 2026. With over 60% of JavaScript developers now using TypeScript in production, and major frameworks like React, Vue, and Svelte shipping first-class TypeScript support, the language has become the de facto standard for large-scale web development. They explore why TypeScript's gradual typing, rich IDE support, and ecosystem maturity have made it a must-learn for front-end and back-end developers alike, and discuss the controversial rise of 'TypeScript-Only' frameworks like Deno and Bun. This episode covers the numbers, the tooling revolution, and what it means for developers sticking with plain JavaScript. #TypeScript #JavaScript #WebDevelopment #ProgrammingLanguages #Frontend #Deno #Bun #React #Vue #Svelte #TypeSafety #GradualTyping #ESBuild #Turbopack #Monorepo #Technology #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
