TypeScript has changed the way we write JavaScript. It adds type safety, improves IDE support, and makes refactoring safer. But in large codebases, poor TypeScript practices can lead to complexity and slow build times. Adopting strict standards is key.

Avoid 'any' at all costs. It defeats the purpose of TypeScript. Use 'unknown' if you truly don't know the type, and narrow it down later. We enforce strict mode in all our client projects to catch errors early.
Utility Types and Generics
Mastering utility types like Pick, Omit, and Partial can reduce boilerplate significantly. Generics allow you to write reusable, type-safe components. This is essential for building robust component libraries in React or Vue.
Also, keep your types close to where they are used. Colocating types with components makes the code more readable and portable. Our developers treat types as documentation.
