Migration to TypeScript #1459
Comments
+1 on this |
+1 had asked about this in the discord but got lost in the chatter. Yessss! Thank you |
While I don't disagree that TS has a better DX, the amount of effort this would take is pretty substantial and should be done in stages. I would ask that nobody take it upon themselves and we would execute this in stages as the core team. There are a number of side effects to doing this in the repo that could impact projects running AnythingLLM elsewhere so we would need to plan and compensate for that. We use TS in the desktop app actually, so this is not unfamiliar territory to the team by any means but right now we have to weigh the value of doing a total TS overhaul which provides zero value to an end-user vs just building the things that are value add to that same person with the current stack. |
This project is going to scale and it should adopt TypeScript as early as possible. TS has a much better DX compared to plain JS without JSDoc and that alone should attract more open source efforts in the long run. If there's no obvious reasons that I missed, I'd love to help out along the way since I want to see success in the project.
