TypeScript for Enterprise Developers

With TypeScript, the JavaScript + Node ecosystem becomes a serious contender for backend development. This talk describes why: maturity, strong language features, and Enterprise-quality open source tools. Once you know how cool and fun it is, I'll reveal some less-pleasant surprises. Get the information I wish I had when moving from Java/Scala to TypeScript. If you're new to Node or to TypeScript, or if you're experienced but still frustrated, this session will widen your development world and strengthen your superpowers.

Intended Audience:
The audience for this talk is Java/C# or Scala developers who might write or change a Node.js application. Do not let our group name mislead you. Men and women are equally encouraged to attend. Pizza and beverages will be provided!
