About the course
Our instructor-led TypeScript training course will get you up to speed with Microsoft's popular superset of JavaScript.
Typescript brings strong types to your JavaScript projects. Your code will become more robust
You will identify potential problems earlier. The code your team writes will more clearly communicate its meaning and intent. Typescript will encourage a workflow where your code is always working
This course can be customised for private / in-house delivery to run alongside your favourite JS frameworks and libraries such as Angular, React, GraphQL, Node.js and even bring in topics from our Advanced TypeScript training course - let us know about your specific learning goals and project requirements to find out how we can help.
Our standard course focuses on learning TypeScript within the context of Web Application development, but can be adapted and blended with with other libraries and frameworks such as React Native, Electron, or for IoT applications (for instance, with a focus on DeviceScript).
Instructor-led online and in-house face-to-face options are available - as part of a wider customised training programme, or as a standalone workshop, on-site at your offices or at one of many flexible meeting spaces in the UK and around the World.
-
By the end of this course, attendees will be able to:
- Gain TypeScript skills to build more robust and maintainable JavaScript applications.
- Understand functions, higher-order functions, and advanced types to write expressive and type-safe code.
- Implement interfaces and inheritance to create flexible and scalable object-oriented designs.
- Leverage decorators to add metadata and enhance the functionality of your classes and methods.
- Create loosely coupled and highly testable applications with dependency injection.
- Handle asynchronous operations with ease and precision using Promises and TypeScript.
- Integrate TypeScript into your existing JavaScript projects and frameworks.
- Tackle asynchronous code with greater clarity and control.
-
Our TypeScript workshop is suitable for developers looking to quickly grasp the fundamentals needed to use TypeScript in the wild - for instance alongside another JavaScript framework.
-
Delegates should have attended our Modern JavaScript training course or have equivalent experience with the fundamentals of JavaScript development.
Please let us know if you if you need a JavaScript primer if you're coming from another language such as C#, Python, or Java as we can tailor a training programme that draws upon topics across many relevant JavaScript-related courses.
-
This TypeScript course is available for private / custom delivery for your team - as an in-house face-to-face workshop at your location of choice, or as online instructor-led training via MS Teams (or your own preferred platform).
Get in touch to find out how we can deliver tailored training which focuses on your project requirements and learning goals.
