• Salsa-supporting work
  • Optional parameter with jsdoc does not be respected by salsa intellisense #6992 Use smarter type fallbacks in error cases 👍 including in TypeScript
• Suggestions
  • Suggestion: non-nullable type #185 Non-nullable: confirm that this is committed? 👍
  • Support type guards on property access expression #3812 Type guards on property access - done as part of non-nullable? 👍
  • Trailing Commas in Function Param Lists #7279 Trailing commas in argument lists 👍
  • Do whatever the ES proposal does
  • Suggestion: Add a "forceStrictMode" compiler option #7209 Add a "force strict mode" option
  • 👎 write "use strict"; yourself + TSLint if appropriate
  • "duplicate identifier" error in js files produced by tsc #7077 Duplicate identifiers in namespace emit
    • 👍 in the cases where we can detect it
  • Class properties doesn't inherit types from interface #7011 Apply interface types to provide types to implicit-any-declared class properties
    • 👍 see notes in bug
