TypeScript is not "real" static typing in the same sense as Go, Rust, C#; the type information disappears the moment you build it.
function fn(x: string) {}
Will happily accept:
fn(2)
At runtime (and thus the need for schema validators like Zod, Valibot, et al because dev-land "static typing" is a façade)
> Rich and the rest of the Svelte team are still using typscript
To be clear, they are not "using" TypeScript, it's more accurate to say they are providing TypeScript bindings.
Their codebase (as in the actual code they are writing) is undoubtedly JS[0] with `.d.ts` bindings for TypeScript[1]. Author can also do the same and provide TS bindings at any point in the future.
