In this episode of The Programming Languages Podcast with Fexingo, hosts Lucas and Luna explore the meteoric rise of TypeScript in 2026. They dive into how TypeScript's adoption has surged past 80% among professional JavaScript developers, driven by the rise of AI-generated code and the need for type safety in large codebases. Lucas breaks down the key numbers from the State of JS 2025 survey, including the 90% satisfaction rating and the dramatic shift of major libraries like React, Vue, and Svelte to first-class TypeScript support. They also discuss how TypeScript is expanding beyond the browser into backend with Deno and Bun, and the impact of Microsoft's recent push for stricter TypeScript configurations in open-source projects. The episode closes with a look at how TypeScript is reshaping developer education and tooling in 2026.
