I am equally fascinated by the rise of TypeScript in this fast and loose reality, bringing more discipline to the JavaScript programming realm. Using TypeScript as part of my work around Spectral rules governing APIs has left me thinking more deeply about the potential of not just strongly typed APIs, but strongly typed API operations surrounding our APIs across the enterprise.

You need a system to go fast, you need chaos to do something new. Chose well
