Boston · September 27 - 30, 2015
About this Presentation
Who would have guessed that JavaScript would become so pervasive? It's clear that the world has realized how powerful and ubiquitous JavaScript is, but it's a beast nevertheless. There's an explosion of JavaScript libraries, but we're also seeing the emergence of languages that transform to JavaScript. These languages try to expose the power of JavaScript, while hiding it's ugly parts.
In this presentation we will learn the key features of Microsoft's JavaScript like language, how to program with TypeScript, and its benefits.
