Session: TypeScript You MIGHT Like
1 May 2026 11:30 AM | The Goonies - Theatre 16 (21)
Track: Architecture & Platform Engineering
TypeScript isn’t just a stricter JavaScript, it’s a toolkit for writing clearer, safer, and more maintainable code. Many developers simply use it minimally after encountering verbose types, confusing errors, or patterns that feel academic.
This talk takes a different route: dozens practical, real‑world TypeScript examples you can use today without over‑engineering, or over-hauling, your codebase. Through dozens of bite‑sized examples drawn from actual projects, we’ll cover patterns that reduce bugs, tips that keep types manageable, and features you might be overlooking.
Whether you’re a JavaScript developer TypeScript‑curious, or an experienced user looking for new tricks, you’ll leave with ideas you can drop straight into your editor; and a new appreciation for TypeScript that you MIGHT actually like.
