TypeScript#

Overview#

TypeScript is a strongly typed superset of JavaScript that compiles to plain JavaScript. It is developed and maintained by Microsoft, and it brings optional static types, classes, and interfaces to JavaScript, making it suitable for large-scale application development.

Supported Versions#

TypeScript 3.x
TypeScript 4.x
TypeScript 5.x

Data Type Correspondence#

Pars Data Type	TypeScript Data Type	Description
Object	Object	The base type for all other types.
Bit	boolean	Represents a binary digit, either 0 or 1.
UInt8 (UByte)	number	Unsigned 8-bit integer.
Int8 (Byte)	number	Signed 8-bit integer.
UInt16 (UShort)	number	Unsigned 16-bit integer.
Int16 (Short)	number	Signed 16-bit integer.
UInt32 (UInt)	number	Unsigned 32-bit integer.
Int32 (Int)	number	Signed 32-bit integer.
UInt64 (ULong)	number	Unsigned 64-bit integer.
Int64 (Long)	number	Signed 64-bit integer.
UInt128	number	Unsigned 128-bit integer.
Int128	number	Signed 128-bit integer.
Float16	number	16-bit floating-point number.
Float32 (Float)	number	32-bit floating-point number (single precision).
Float64 (Double)	number	64-bit floating-point number (double precision).
Float128	number	128-bit floating-point number.
Decimal	number	Represents fixed-point numbers with specific decimal places.
String	string	Represents a sequence of characters.
Char	string	Represents a single character.
Boolean	boolean	Represents a logical value, either `true` or `false`.
Blob	Blob	Represents a Binary Large Object.
Time	Date	Represents time-related data such as dates, times, or durations.

Notes:

Some types such as UInt128, Int128, Float16, and Float128 do not have direct equivalents in TypeScript. They are represented using the closest available type, number.
Blob is represented as a Blob in TypeScript, suitable for handling binary data.

This guide provides an overview of the TypeScript language's capabilities, including supported versions and data type correspondence.
