I refactored a lot as I went, which is kind of funny because ideally at the end of your TypeScript move, your app will be no better than you left. So I tend to hold your code bases too because with an older code base, it could uncover a lot of disturbing things. And things where you're like, I don't, you know, what's going on here? Why did I write this 10 years ago?
In this episode of Syntax, Wes and Scott talk about their respective processes for converting JavaScript to TypeScript in their projects, why you might want to, and tooling for moving to TypeScript.
