Dont use TypeScript unless you know how to use it. When you do some lessons / courses and can use it fluidly to create apps. Then you know why you use it.

TypeScript is absolutely essential in coding. As you secure the flow in your app. What you gain with TypeScript? Debug time is lowered immensely. As you cannot basically make big errors.

Websites/Javacript ran just fine well before typescript came along, so the notion of typescript being "absolutely essential in coding" is questionable.
