What is Typings?

Typings is the simple way to manage and install TypeScript definitions. It uses typings.json , which can resolve to the Typings Registry, GitHub, NPM, Bower, HTTP and local files.

Packages can use type definitions from various sources and different versions, knowing they will never conflict for users.

Node Install:

typings install debug --save


The public registry is maintained by the community, and is used to resolve official type definitions for JavaScript packages.

When using TypeScript, you will need TypeScript definition files to work with external libraries.i.e. Typings

What is Typescript?

What is Typescript?

TypeScript is a free and open source programming language developed and maintained by Microsoft. It is a strict superset of JavaScript, and adds optional static typing and class-based object-oriented programming to the language.

TypeScript is a superset of JavaScript which primarily provides optional static typing, classes and interfaces. One of the big benefits is to enable IDEs to provide a richer environment for spotting common errors as you type the code.

There are two main ways to get the TypeScript tools:

  1. Via npm (the Node.js package manager)
  2. By installing TypeScript’s Visual Studio plugins
The command-line TypeScript compiler can be installed as a Node.js package.
 
Install
npm install -g typescript

Small Discussion about Polymer.Js?

What is Polymer.Js?

Polymer.js is a JavaScript library created by Google that allows reusing the HTML elements for building applications with components. Polymer is an open-source JavaScript library developed by Google developers

Polymer provides a number of features over vanilla Web Components:

  • Simplified way of creating custom elements
  • Both One-way and Two-way data binding
  • Computed properties
  • Conditional and repeat templates
  • Gesture events

Polymer.js places a hefty set of requirements on the browser, relying on a number of technologies that are in still in the process of standardization (by W3C) and are not yet present in today’s browsers. 

Examples include the shadow dom, template elements, custom elements, HTML imports, mutation observers, model-driven views, pointer events, and web animations. These are marvelous technologies, but at least as of now, that are yet-to-come to modern browsers.

The Polymer strategy is to have front-end developers leverage these leading-edge, still-to-come, browser-based technologies, which are currently in the process of standardization (by W3C), as they become available. 

The recommended polyfills are designed in such a way that (at least theoretically) will be seamless to replace once the native browser versions of these capabilities become available.
