When should I use TypeScript with modules?

Using TypeScript with modules is beneficial when you want to enhance code organization, maintainability, and type safety.

What are the advantages of using TypeScript over JavaScript?

TypeScript offers static typing, better tooling support, and improved code readability, which can help prevent runtime errors.

Can you give me an example of a TypeScript module?

Sure! A simple TypeScript module could look like this:

// math.ts
export function add(a: number, b: number): number {
    return a + b;
}

You can then import it in another file using import { add } from './math';.

Are there any downsides to using TypeScript?

Some downsides include a steeper learning curve, longer initial setup, and potential compilation overhead, but many find it worth it.
