I keep hearing about Typescript and although I'm not a JS developer I still want to give it a try! I love learning about new programming languages. Thanks for this comprehensive tutorial. :)

Nice post! Just wonder why you use snake\_case instead of camelCase for js function name?

normally I do use camelCase for functions but this time it went over my head so I forgot :) and also for this post snake\_case makes it more readable for beginners
