Hi, I’m Aliaksei. Since I was a child, I have enjoyed building things. For example, I had an entire city built with LEGO, and I can’t count how many hours I spent on this. Coding has opened a new world of opportunities for me. A new world to build my own things. Frontend allows me to use creative and technical skills together, allowing me to be an engineer and an artist at the same time. I have the ability to create beautiful and performant products with delightful user experiences.

However, you can’t create something incredible without suitable tools. Typescript is one of the main tools I use. It has saved me a lot of time by catching errors and providing fixes before actually running the code. Typescript allows me to write better, cleaner, more productive and maintainable code. Using Typescript, I can finally concentrate on creation.
Those who once tried Typescript are unlikely to want to go back. But whether you choose TS or JS –  programming is a wonderful journey where everyone can choose the way that brings pleasure.

Hello, my name is Vlad. I am a front-end developer with over 3+ years of experience in front-end.
I graduated from BSUIR and studied a lot of engineering programming practices there. During my university time, I worked with C, C++, Java, and JavaScript.
I started my web development journey with vanilla JS, HTML, and CSS. Then I had an experience with Angular, where I worked with types in JavaScript. It was a rewarding experience that provided a clear understanding of best practices and profitability of types. Also, I had some experience with node JS and Express to write simple server APIs.

In my daily work, I use React + Typescript. I like this combination because these technologies are modern, fast, and reliable. I can’t even imagine using React without TS. I will share with you web development knowledge and provide relevant practical exercises. See you later!

A long time ago at the beginning of my career I was coding in Java. Compiled languages were so natural to me I could not have imagined not using them. Calling a method and finding out that it does not exist only in runtime? Nonsense.

Couple years later I had to switch to frontend role, Angular 2.x was hot those days and it was coming with Typescript by default. I think that switching from typed to typed language smoothed this transition a lot.

I’ve been working with Typescript for 6 years now. It is a powerful tool that helps you write more stable, informative, adaptable to refactoring and less error prone code. On my project we even generate TS definitions from our back-end API to achieve truthful types where they tend to be unpredictable.

Typescript can be tricky to start with, so during this TS Bootcamp we will help you discover its mysteries.

Most of my software engineering career, I was doing iOS native application development using Obj-C & Swift language. Joining to Evolution, I had a great opportunity to try out game development using TypeScript – and it was worth it.

Moving to JavaScript was not a hard task, as the language concept is used in most modern languages. JavaScript is a great language to learn & use as there is no limits what you can do with it. Develop mobile apps using React Native, desktop apps using Electron, Web applications, 2D & 3D game development, machine learning, backend service using NodeJS and so on and on.

TypeScript is basically JavaScript on steroids – as it adds all necessary features to which were missing for the already great language. Every valid JavaScript code is valid TypeScript code.

My software engineering career started in industrial automation, which meant apps needed to be designed and written in any suitable language. Some platform limitations got me writing a lot of type-unsafe pure JS code, own page update implementations etc. You probably know how “fun” it is.

Since everyone was talking about TypeScript, I gave it a try and have been pleasantly surprised. In a lot of cases TypeScript tells you there is an error before you update the page and look at the developer console. Typing variables does make you write a bit more code, but trust me, this way of codebase documentation is a must have for applications, developed and supported by a lot of people. Use TypeScript, it is awesome!
