Character Sketches
TypeScript
The responsible older sibling who cleans up JavaScript's messes. TypeScript proves that the best way to fix a language is to build a better one on top and pretend the old one doesn't exist.
JavaScript
The accidental emperor who conquered the world in 10 days. JavaScript was built as a toy, became the backbone of the internet, and still thinks '0' == 0 is reasonable.
