TypeScript:

• Pros:
  • Recommended to be used with Angular 2
  • Type safe, if we want
  • Mostly ES6 compliance, is a superset of ES6
• Cons:
  • Is not Javascript
  • Need type declartions for thirdparty library (but usually we doesn't have to create it ourself)
  • Integration with vim is not great

ES6:

• Pros:
  • Is the future of Javascript, so we could drop the transpiler when mordern browers support all of ES6 features
  • Tooling integration is better
• Cons:
  • When change to Angular2, using ES6 would be not optimal.
