Go-based TypeScript to dramatically improve speed, scalability

[branfont]

Microsoft expects its port of the TypeScript compller, tools, and code base from JavaScript to Go will be completed by the end of 2025.

Microsoft is developing a native TypeScript implementation based on Google’s Go language. The initiative promises dramatic improvements in editor startup speed, build times, and memory usage, making it easier to scale TypeScript to large code bases, Microsoft said.

Announced March 11, the plan involves porting the TypeScript compiler, tools, and code base from JavaScript to Go. Microsoft’s TypeScript team expects to be able to preview command-line type-checking in Go-based tsc by mid-2025, and to deliver a feature-complete Go implementation of TypeScript by the end of the year.

Don’t get butt hurt because I linked it. It was just an fyi.
