In the confusing jungle of transpiler languages for JavaScript, there are some gems. TypeScript is mainstream, ReScript is starting to establish itself, and Elm is still an insider tip. This article takes a detailed look at ReScript – but also sheds light on the limitations of the young language. In what projects does its use make sense? What projects should rather use TypeScript on the one hand or Elm on the other? 

Structured data in earlier versions of ASP.NET meant creating and registering custom types and configuration sections for our applications. In ASP.NET Core and in Core MVC, structured configuration is a breeze with support for JSON documents as the storage mechanism and the ability to flatten hierarchies into highly portable keys.

 

Typescript full course | Zero to Mastery

In this course, we are going to start at the basics of TypeScript and how primitive JavaScript data types integrate into the work of TypeScript. There is going to be challenges along the way to strengthen basic concepts.

Why We Chose Typescript?
requirements:
- Must have types.
- Must have good tooling already.
- Powers major production apps.
- Our devs should be able to onboard fairly quickly.
- Should work on both the client and the server.
- Good library support.

A modular, service based web application model

Code generator to produce initial services / user interface code for an SQL table

T4 based code generation on server to reference script widgets with intellisense / compile time validation

T4 based code generation to provide compile time type safety and intellisense while calling AJAX services from script side.

An attribute based form definition system (prepare UI in server side with a simple C# class)

Automatic seamless data-binding through form definitions (form <-> entity <-> service).

Caching Helpers (Local / Distributed)

Automatic cache validation

Configuration System (storage medium independent. store settings in database, file, whatever...)

Simple Logging

Reporting (reports just provide data, has no dependency on rendering, similar to MVC)

Script bundling, minification (making use of Node / UglifyJS / CleanCSS) and content versioning (no more F5 / clear browser cache)

Fluent SQL Builder (SELECT/INSERT/UPDATE/DELETE)

Micro ORM (also Dapper is integrated)

Customizable handlers for REST like services that work by reusing information in entity classes and do automatic validation.

Attribute based navigation menu

UI Localization (store localized texts in json files, embedded resource, database, in memory class, anywhere)

Data Localization (using an extension table mechanism helps to localize even data entered by users, like lookup tables)

Script widget system (inspired by jQueryUI but more suitable for C# code)

Client side and server side validation (based on jQuery validate plugin, but abstracts dependency)

Audit logging (where CDC is not available)

System for data based integration tests

Dynamic scripts

Script side templates 

A set of tslint rules for static code analysis of Angular TypeScript projects.
You can run the static code analyzer over web apps, NativeScript, Ionic, etc.

Microsoft has published the code for its new Fluid Framework on GitHub, offering developers a TypeScript library for building "distributed, real-time collaborative web applications".
