It’s good to know that Typescript is built into create-react-app now. The problems I had with it when I tried to use TS with React previously was the lack of consistently defined type definitions in the open source projects (which may also be better now). The specific use case this article covers is for large scale enterprise grade applications, where subtle differences like the ones I mentioned can add up and result in hard-to-track bugs. I hope you didn’t take away from the article that I thought React was a superior / inferior framework in any way. That was not my intention. I specifically mentioned enterprise scale applications to highlight the niche that Angular excels in compared to React.
