The renderer and watchtower were initially developed in JS, but this led to constant problems and time wasted in debugging mistakes with poor error reporting.
TypeScript should help with typing safer code and having better tools and static code analysis instead of things going 'undefined' sometimes :) Although it's work to convert the full project, it should be a worthy investment considering the amount of developer sadness that went into trivial mistakes.

  • Add TS to the pipeline.
  • Add type hints to the code progressively.
  • Fix errors found by the static analysis.
  • All code in TS.
  • Enable the most pedantic set of errors, no 'any', strict null checks etc.
  • Imports are working correctly.
  • All IDEs and settings enabled. No errors left :)
