Hi everyone!

I really appreciate the work done on this project — it's been super helpful in building my frontend app and speeding up development.

I was wondering if you'd consider adding support for TypeScript. It could greatly enhance the developer experience by providing better type safety, autocompletion, and reducing runtime errors.

I'm curious to hear your thoughts! If this aligns with the project's goals, I'd be happy to help or contribute in any way I can.

Thanks!

Subject: Suggestion for TypeScript Support
Hi everyone!

I want to take a moment to express my gratitude for the incredible work done on this project. It's been immensely helpful in building my frontend app and has significantly sped up my development process.

Proposal for TypeScript Support
I would like to propose the addition of TypeScript support to the project. Here are a few reasons why I believe this could be beneficial:

Type Safety: TypeScript offers static type checking, which can help catch errors at compile time rather than runtime.
Enhanced Developer Experience: With TypeScript, developers can benefit from better autocompletion and improved documentation through type definitions.
Reduced Runtime Errors: By catching potential issues early, we can reduce the number of runtime errors and improve overall application stability.
I’m very interested to hear your thoughts on this suggestion. If adding TypeScript aligns with the project's goals, I would be more than happy to help or contribute in any way I can.

Thank you for considering this!

Hi, I checked online and I couldn’t find any plans for official TypeScript support for this project. It’s still focused on JavaScript right now. TypeScript would definitely help with type safety and autocompletion, so I agree it would be a great improvement. For now, there is no built-in TS support, but it’s a good idea and worth bringing up. If you start something, feel free to share it here, I’d be happy to check it out.

Hi Aayu,

Great suggestion! Adding TypeScript support is something many projects consider once they’ve matured, since it brings a lot of benefits — strong type safety, richer IDE autocompletion, and fewer runtime bugs, just like you mentioned.

Whether TypeScript gets added usually depends on the project’s roadmap and maintainers’ priorities. For some projects, sticking with plain JavaScript keeps things simple and accessible for contributors, while others see TypeScript as a long-term investment in maintainability.

If you’d like to help push this forward, a good next step would be to:

Open a discussion or issue (if not already) specifically for TypeScript adoption.

Suggest a gradual migration plan (e.g., starting with type declarations or a hybrid JS/TS setup).

Offer to contribute a proof-of-concept PR, so maintainers can evaluate the trade-offs.

This way, maintainers can better assess if TypeScript aligns with the project’s goals, and your contribution could make it easier for them to say yes.

Thanks for offering to help — I’m sure the maintainers will appreciate your enthusiasm!
