In Word you can only store 2 bytes. That is why I use Writer.

Why using Typescript, if there's already ECMA6 [^] available in almost all browsers?

Mysteries over mysteries.
Why would anybody use an interpreter after getting rid of a C64?
Why would someone use something that is compiled to interpreted code?
Why would people merrily reinvent the wheel over and over again?
The language is JavaScript. that of Mordor, which I will not utter here
This is Javascript. If you put big wheels and a racing stripe on a golf cart, it's still a f***ing golf cart.

"You mean like from space?"
"No, from Canada."
If software development were a circus, we would all be the clowns.

Because TypeScript provides much more than what ES6 provides. Also takes care of compilation and fallback to ES5 or lesser.
Quick start · TypeScript[^]
TypeScript is Superset of JavaScript (ES6 too). This simply means that you have everything available in TypeScript which you have in ES6 + more.
Life is a computer program and everyone is the programmer of his own life.

Because TYPEscript is typed?
And compiles to JavaScript that is available in ALL browsers (and not ALMOST all...)?
Or because a project already used it from a time before ECMA6?
Maybe the customer for that project uses IE that doesn't support anything?
Or because JavaScript is a pile of garbage (even ECMA6) and TypeScript fixes some of that?
Just some guesses, I've never actually worked with TypeScript

Well, a "pile of garbage" for the most used language is a bit inappropriate.
I mean, a few can be wrong, but so many? i really don't think so ..

A whole lot of people listen to Justin Bieber and think he is wonderful. Are they correct as well?
Popular != good

Oh come on ... what the hell has Bieber to do with JavaScript now? .. come on, let's be constructive

Both are garbage that is popular with a certain sector of the potential market.
Just because something is popular with a subgroup, doesn't mean it is a good product.

Actually Griffs analogy is bloody good.
There's a whole raft of people who think a McDonalds is good food when it most clearly isn't. Just because something has a large user base, qv Smoking, it does not follow that it is any good. Popularity is not the same as Quality. JavaScript is to quality code what McD's is to fine dining.
Argument. Closed.

There's not mulch I can say. You compost what you like in the lounge - but sticking to puns befits you.

Nope[^]. It's only the most used because it's easy to learn and because it's your only choice for the web.
The language has serious design flaws.
Sure, it's easy to crank up a little script and run it in your browser. Unfortunately, it's even easier to introduce subtle and less subtle bugs and write code that's completely not maintainable.
JavaScript gives you a false sense of safety. It's like riding a bike with those little side wheels and then riding head first into a ravine.
But sure, if you think 1 + [1] equals 11 and 1 + ["h"] is NaN (or something like that), go ahead and give JavaScript some praise

I can give dozens of examples where that was (and is), indeed, the case. Here's one: religions throughout the ages.

You've been in one before. Well it is your own, but it is something.

Well, that's a bit unfair. The examples you listed should demonstrate that JavaScript is not able clean garbage produced by some programmers, not JavaScript in itself is garbage
OK, yes, in somesense, it is, as any untyped language is ...

You can output garbage in any language, JavaScript just makes it that much more easy than other languages
