Thanks for the article! I liked your look at the tradeoffs.
I write node.js applications and try to keep a very airtight standard of correctness; so my first statically typed language is typescript!
The funny thing about the “world” part you noted is that in dynamically typed languages (JavaScript) implementing input validation for API endpoints still takes a great deal of work. However, with io-ts I’m looking forward to using the types as validators. Of course this won’t check everything my custom validator would, but it seems like a useful start! lorefnon.tech/2018/03/25/typescrip...
