TypeScript is now prevalent across browsers, mobile apps, servers, and more. And with good reason: type-safe code allows developers to avoid entire classes of bugs and gives us confidence to undertake ambitious refactors.
Unfortunately, as soon as we serialize or deserialize data, eg. from making REST API calls or otherwise passing messages, guarantees of type soundness go out the window.
That’s changing with a new suite of tools that bridge the divide between static type checking and runtime data parsing. In the talk, we’ll share how we use these tools at Interval to ship code more quickly and with higher confidence.
