At coalsoft, we realized that while JavaScript is versatile, it posed challenges in maintaining code quality. Despite rigorous code reviews, we still encountered undefined properties and unhandled edge cases, which led to errors in production.

By transitioning to TypeScript, we saw significant improvements. Its static typing provides immediate feedback during development, allowing us to catch potential issues before they reach production. This has resulted in more reliable, maintainable code and a better development process overall.
