TypeScript basic intro

TypeScript intro

James Irwin
7-Jun-2018

TypeScript is a typed superset of JavaScript. All JavaScript is valid TypeScript, and TS transpiles to JS to run in browsers (much like Babel transpiles ES6+ to ES5). In transpilation, all types are stripped out; you get type-checking at compile-time only (but run-time type-checking is needed much less because of it). It is developed by Microsoft, powers apps you know like VS Code, and is in use at companies like Lyft, Reddit, and Slack.

Definition files

TypeScript lets you use existing JavaScript libraries in a strongly-typed manner by providing type definition files, which are separate files that annotate a given library's API. When you go to import lodash, you will likely also want to import @typings/lodash, which will install a lodash/index.d.ts file in your dependencies. So

Change a string from camelCase to kebab-case or snake_case and vice versa
'use strict';
let DASH_LOWERCASE_REGEX = /-([a-z])/g;
let UNDERSCORE_LOWERCASE_REGEX = /_([a-z])/g;
let UPPERCASE_REGEX = /([A-Z])/g;
// func argument to .replace receives:
// 1) the matched substring
// 2) nth parenthesized substr match (i.e. if the pattern has any `()` group matches,
// those will be passed as the next args)
