TypeScript compiler and tools show 10x speed improvement when rewritten to Go. The process to go fully live is ongoing. There’s no other thing on earth that brings a smile to soon-cease-to-exist (apparently) developers as faster tools. In this case, the tool is Typescript, a strongly typed Javascript superset, and compiler that makes web development less frustrating. Anders Hejlsberg decided to sweeten this day today for many people by announcing a super secret project called Corsa, just like Opel Corsa. And as the car is fast, as Typescript will be. But we don’t talk about any neatly optimized function, the Typescript team decided to go full Gopher and rewrite the compiler and TypeScript tools from Javascript to Go language. The little forgotten language that let’s remember, is in the elite of the new wave alongside Rust, was chosen to pump Typescript performance. So far, there is a public repo with what is done so far and some tests, while the final version should land in the middle of the year 2025. Opening the VSCode codebase in VSCode (not a typo) takes 10 times less. Not 77s, but 7 seconds. We are talking here about a codebase with 1.5 million lines of code! The news is really exciting because it will boost all tools and frameworks that use Typescript, as well as pipelines. Among all the things that dropped today, TypeScript time is the best.
