Deep dive into advanced TypeScript

Microsoft is arguably taking over the open source world. Esko,
Paavo, Juuso and Sam debate the role the company plays in today’s
open source community – TypeScript, GitHub, VS Code, npmjs.com
and all – and discuss the advanced features of TypeScript.
Guests

Paavo Huhtala joined Reaktor at the age of 19. A
self-taught hobbyist programmer since middle school, he likes
pretty much everything – from writing compilers in Rust to adding
that missing 0.5 pixels of left padding to the signups form's
submit button.


Juuso Mikkonen has been programming
professionally since 2015 but still learns – mostly through
mistakes – something new every day. His day-to-day tasks usually
involve programming in TypeScript, building web services, remote
teamwork and managing time zone differences.


Sam Grönblom is from Finland but relocated to
Tokyo a decade ago. He’s partial to pragmatic, statically typed
functional languages, and he wishes he could only program in F#.
Host

Esko Lahti is a programmer who loves to have his
weekly mind blowing experience caused by a yet another neat
TypeScript typing system trick.
