Typescript for Web Development
Published by Pearson
Typescript is an improved, more scalable form of JavaScript that adds advanced support for static typing and object-oriented programming. This course offers a practical, in-depth look at how Typescript can be used in web development alongside major technologies such as Node.js, React, Angular, and Vue.
What you’ll learn and how you can apply it
- Make your web applications more scalable with Typescript’s static typing system
