tide

off topic: I've found tide-mode[0] to be pretty good to use with typescript on Emacs [0] https://github.com/ananthakumaran/tide

> if I have been writing code with Java / C# for nearly a decade , nothing has come close to Typescript in terms of productivity,flexibility and confidence I can completely relate. To me the greatest thing is the tooling around it. Using tide[0] on even plain js codebase is just amazing. I really wish ruby had a TypeRuby compiler (to regular ruby). I know about crystal, but I still want regular Ruby, just with a type checker at compile time, not runtime. [0]: https://github.com/ananthakumaran/tide

> Am I missing out by not switching to VSCode? I’m using ST3 currently and it works, but there’s no fancy intellisense. Are the benefits worth picking up a new editor for? Well... typescript comes with tsserver, which is a local language-server (a Typescript LSP-server), which is what VSCode uses to provide all that goodness. If you find a LSP-plugin for your favorite editor, it should thereotically be able to offer the same. For instance, Emacs has tide[1] which uses tsserver (just like VSCode) to provide the same functionality. I’d be surprised if there were no LSP or tsserver-clients for ST3. No need to leave something you know well over a single feature it may actually support. [1] https://github.com/ananthakumaran/tide

I'm not a professional front end developer but recently completed some projects in TypeScript. I found it very painless to get set up on Emacs with Tide [0] and it was a pleasure to use. I also use web-mode [1] for templates which adds some bonus features over the existing HMTL editing mode. [0]: https://github.com/ananthakumaran/tide [1]: https://github.com/fxbois/web-mode

> Many of you know that I usually don't use JSX when writing React code. Over a month ago I wanted to try it out, and I realized one of the things holding me back was poor JSX support in Emacs. huh? I've been using emacs with WebMode + tide + FlyCheck and it supports jsx just fine. Moreover, tide[1] provides great support for plain javascript (I've used it extensively on a ES6 codebase with great results). [1]: https://github.com/ananthakumaran/tide

If you're using typescript and emacs, https://github.com/ananthakumaran/tide is a very good integration with the built-in language server for semantic auto-completion and "jump-to" support. I use it every day on large projects. I think that vscode uses the typescript language server behind-the-scenes for plain javascript analysis.

ActiveSphere | Bangalore | ONSITE | Full Time | Full Stack We are a consulting company. But thats not the end of it. One of us has written Emacs mode (https://github.com/ananthakumaran/tide) which is now linked directly from official TypeScript website. Another one of us, has written tunnelling solution, and used it to create a remote debugging (debug another browser session over the internet), as POC. We have done high pace React re-writes for clients. Picked up tech, when needed (React, Angular 2, Go, Erlang, Laravel/PHP, GStreamer). Switched to Erlang for messaging system. Helped clients with cleaning up a over-engineered micro-service mess. We have written a little more here: http://www.activesphere.com/careers.html We are quite lazy at updating our own site, but some of our hacks can be seen at: http://www.activesphere.com/hacks.htm
