I think one of the things Typescript does really well is give people who usually use strongly typed languages (like C# or Java) a great way to transition to Node. It's also a great way to build for any nodejs environment (i.e. es5, es5, web, etc).

Also, I feel as though I should say that if you really want to unleash Typescript on a front end project go with Angular, it's built to use Typescript natively and their CLI is far more rich in features. You'll spend a lot less time on boiler plate code.
