This book covers features of TypeScript 2.1 like async/await and Angular 2

TypeScript is a JavaScript superset that supports static typing and compiles down to plain JavaScript. TypeScript gives you compile-time errors, great tooling support and the latest JavaScript features like classes, arrow functions and modules. You can compile these latest features down to a JavaScript version that is supported in today's browsers.

The adoption of TypeScript is increasing and as a serious developer you should have that language definitely in your pocket!

Join Thomas in this book to learn the TypeScript language. After you've set up your environment you get up to speed with basic types, interfaces, classes, functions, modules, decorators and you learn how to build modern, component-based web-applications with Angular and rock-solid TypeScript code.

This book is structured into twelve chapters:

  1. Introduction
  2. Setting up Your Environment
  3. Using TypeScript
  4. Basic Types
  5. Var, Let and Const
  6. Interfaces and Classes
  7. Generics
  8. Functions (includes async/await)
  9. Modules
  10. Decorators
  11. Declaration Files
  12. Angular with TypeScript

Now let's learn TypeScript, so that you can build your next JavaScript-based application with this amazing, popular language.

    I was able to read the whole book cover to cover ( except Angular chapter last chapter) in a weekend and know enough to be table to start coding for work projects on Monday! .
    Of course there is a lot more into TS but if you are already a developer in some other language and know basics of programming you can learn TS with this book in a Saturday/Sunday ...

    This is an excellent book! The author's writing style is very easy to read and it kept me engaged throughout the whole book. I also appreciate the consistent contrasts throughout the book of Typescript specific features vs features also available in Javascript. The comparisons to how concepts in Typescript are similar to concepts in C# and Java were also greatly appreciated and made learning Typescript a breeze!

    4.0 out of 5 stars Less is more
    Reviewed in the United States on June 4, 2018
    Most of the time you don't need a thick volume to quickly get you up to speed. This was accomplished in part by the author skipping over elementary concepts such as variable assignment and looping -- if you're *entirely* new to programming, you'll need a different book first. The final chapter, more like an appendix really, about Angular 2+ is also a nice refresher without having to get a full fledged book on the topic.

    My only complaint is that there are altogether too many instances of non-idiomatic English in the book. This is a disturbing trend in tech books where so many authors are not American. I'm surprised at the stuff that gets by editors, though in this case I think this is self published but still think the author should have spent $500-$1000 on a freelance editor.

    On the other hand, the author has provided a very nice index, something a lot of self-publishing authors fail to do. For this I will raise my rating to 4.5 and then round up.

    EDIT: There is SERIOUS misinformation on page 26; long story short, the author tries to differentiate between script tags loaded in the head section vs. the body section, but the fact of the matter is the code executes no matter which of these places the script tag is located. This such a serious mistake I cannot let my rating remain as 5-stars.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Klasse Einstieg in TypeScript
    Reviewed in Germany on February 24, 2017
    Verified Purchase
    Ich habe mir dieses Buch letzte Woche als Taschenbuch bestellt, um mich in TypeScript einzuarbeiten. Ich arbeite selbst im Java-Umfeld und plane bei verschiedenen Web-Anwendungen Typescript anstelle von reinem Javascript einzusetzen.

    Nach einer Woche kann ich bereits sagen, dass sich dieses Buch mehr als gelohnt hat. Es liest sich sehr gut, die Kapitel sind logisch strukturiert aufgebaut, der Autor fokussiert sich wirklich auf Typescript und nicht auf unzählige Javascript-features. Was ich ebenfalls sehr hilfreich fand, dass der Autor an verschiedenen Stellen einen Note-Kasten hat, bei dem er bestimmte Themen vertieft/aufklärt.

    Zum Inhalt: Der Autor setzt voraus, dass man bereits Vorkenntnisse im Programmieren hat. D.h. man sollte bspw. wissen, was Variablen sind.
    Das Buch beginnt in der Einführung mit den verschiedenen Javascript-Versionen, von Ecmascript 1 bis ES2015, und erläutert dann die Vorteile von Typescript gegenüber reinem Javascript. Dann wird die Umgebung mit Nodejs, NPM und Visual Studio Code aufgesetzt. Ich selbst nutze zum Entwickeln jedoch nicht Visual Studio Code, sondern IntelliJ von Jetbrains. Macht aber für das Buch keinen grossen Unterschied, da es um Typescript und nicht um Visual Studio Code geht. Nachdem die Umgebung steht geht's los mit Typescript. Vom Migrieren von Javascript zu Typescript über verschiedene Compileroptionen bis hin zum Debuggen erfährt man die Grundprinzipien. In den folgenden Kapiteln beschreibt Thomas Claudius Huber die verschiedenen Typen wie boolean, string, number und array, Interfaces, Klassen, Generics und Funktionen. Sehr nützlich fand ich das Kapitel zu Modulen, was zeigt, wie Code in mehreren Dateien strukturiert wird. Zudem habe ich selbst hier noch einiges über den sogenannten Node Package Manager (npm) gelernt. Die weiteren Kapitel zeigen, wie Header-dateien eingebunden werden (in Typescript als declaration files bezeichnet) und wie Annotations (in Typescript Decorator) erstellt werden. Im letzten Kapitel werden die Grundlagen zur komponenten-basierter Entwicklung mit Angular 2 gezeigt, einschliesslich Databinding und Http-Zugriff auf Github. Doch dies auch wieder mit dem Focus auf Typescript. Der Autor schafft es durchgängig durch das Buch, Typescript in den Vordergrund zu stellen, und schweift eben nicht auf andere Themen wie HTML, CSS oder diverse Javascript-features ab. Dies macht jede Seite sein Geld wert, wenn man in Typescript einsteigen möchte.

    Tolles Buch und idealer Einstieg für Java-Entwickler oder Kenner anderer, ähnlicher Programmiersprachen wie bspw. C#.

    Man kann z.B. Angular lernen und dabei auch TypeScript aus Anhang lesen. Wenn man mehr braucht dann ist es sicher besser ein Buch über TypeScript zu lesen und das ist das richtige Buch dafür.
