JavaScript
A scripting language used to create and
control dynamic website content. It's what
makes web pages interactive.
TypeScript
Essentially, it's JavaScript with added
features. It's a superset of JavaScript,
which means it has everything JavaScript
has, plus some extra goodies.

JavaScript
Dynamically typed. This means you don't
have to explicitly declare what type (like
number, string, etc.) a variable is.
It's more flexible but can lead to
unexpected errors.
TypeScript
Statically typed. You have to declare the
type of variables.
This can catch errors early and make the
code more predictable.

Errors are often found at runtime, which
means when the webpage is actually
running.
TypeScript
Errors can be caught during development
(compile-time), preventing many
common mistakes from making it to the
running webpage.

JavaScript
Generally easier for beginners.
TypeScript
Requires understanding of types and some
advanced concepts, so it has a steeper
learning curve.

JavaScript
It enables rapid development and quick
prototyping, making it a go-to for projects
that prioritize speed in the early stages.
TypeScript
Though it might take longer to set up
initially, its robustness in catching errors
early often leads to smoother
development cycles and higher code
quality over time.
