Is it possible to compile TypeScript code to ES6?

Question

JavaScript

Hello .
1. How adequate will this approach be for a person who prefers static typing to become familiar with ES6 through generated code from TypeScript?
2. How well does TypeScript code compile to ES6 at this time?

Answer 1

TypeScript already has the ability to compile to ES6, you don't need to install anything extra for this. You can use Babel+WebPack (or another bundler) if you need more features. Look at the difference between TypeScript and Flow to decide if it's worth it and which is better.
