Is TypeScript going to replace JavaScript?

The question is about Typescript

Answer:

TypeScript is unlikely to completely replace JavaScript, but for the time being, it remains a favorite choice for many developers to produce code that is more structured and resistant to bugs. TypeScript is an extension of JavaScript that adds static typing, among other things, to catch errors early to make the code more maintainable-especially for large-scale applications. However, JavaScript remains the language of the web and has universal support in browsers, not to mention its enormous ecosystem. TypeScript ultimately compiles down to JavaScript, so it does not replace JavaScript but complements it. Many developers like working in TypeScript on complex projects because of the added benefits, but JavaScript will still be used everywhere for a long time, especially on more straightforward projects and in environments that need flexibility.
