Do we need types in JavaScript? Or maybe not?

This is my lightning talk submission to ReactiveConf 2018 https://reactiveconf.com/

In this talk, I want to share my experience gained during the development of frontend applications in several programming languages.

I think it's not a secret for anybody that developing large JavaScript applications is not so easy as it seems at first glance. We all want something simpler and more reliable. Therefore, many developers and even entire companies switch to different, compiled in JavaScript, programming languages. The bulk of such transitions is accounted for TypeScript and flow, and often, developers faced with more problems than they were before.

I wasn't the exception. Moving to a new project, I started using TypeScript and was disappointed. Luckily in my next project I used ClojureScript and it was like everything is illuminated!

The Button widget is removing the type attribute from the Cancel button. This makes that button behave like a submit button.

There are many possible paths to make this work. I'll start from simple to complex. The first is to avoid the issue entirely and not use JavaScript at all. Just use a link:

<form action="/Administration/Department/Create2" method="post">
    <button class="yui3-button">Save</button>
 <a class="yui3-button" href="/Administration/Department/List">Cancel</a>
// Step 1. global definition
function Map(config) {
this._init(config);
}
Map.prototype = {
_container: null,
_init: function (config) {
this._container = document.getElementById(config.container);
