TypeScript 5.0 rebuilt to use ECMAScript modules

With TypeScript 5.0, the TypeScript development team has restructured the entire codebase to use ECMAScript modules, reducing package size and improving performance.

TypeScript 5.0, due from Microsoft as a production release on March 16, has been restructured around the use of ECMAScript modules, a major infrastructure change for the strongly typed JavaScript variant.

Users of TypeScript 5.0, which currently is in a release candidate stage, will need to run Node.js 12 at a minimum. In return, npm installs promise to execute a little faster and take up less space, with the typescript package sized reduced by roughly 46%, Microsoft said in a March 9 bulletin. TypeScript too will be faster, with build times cut by 10% to 25%. API consumers of TypeScript likely will be unaffected.

Dear Oracle, Please Release the JavaScript Trademark

Ryan Dahl
2022-09-03


In 1995 Netscape partnered with Sun Microsystems to create interactive websites. Famously Brendan Eich spent only 10 days to create the first version of JavaScript - a dynamic programming language with a roughly syntactic lineage from Sun’s Java language. As a result of this partnership Sun held the trademark “JavaScript”. In 2009 Oracle acquired Sun Microsystems and the JavaScript trademark as a result.

The trademark has no commercial value. Other than Oracle's JavaScript Extension Toolkit, Oracle does not have any products using the trademark and presumably no planned usage. Oracle doesn’t even participate in the development of any of the JavaScript engines like V8, JavaScriptCore, or Spidermonkey. It seems very likely that JavaScript trademark infringement would be unenforceable in court due to non-use.

Nevertheless the trademark is a dark cloud looming over the world’s most popular programming language. Careful law abiding engineers bend over backwards to avoid its use - leading to confusing terms like ECMAScript.

The best value Oracle could derive from the trademark would be from the goodwill it receives by granting it into the public domain. It’s understandable why this hasn’t yet happened - it would require a very forward thinking and high level Oracle employee to propose something so intangible. Yet it is obviously the right move to trade a worthless trademark for brand marketing and goodwill.
Oracle, please release the JavaScript trademark.

Trivia: This trademark issue is why the standardized form of JS is called ECMAScript.

Angular v16.0.0 should be launching sometime in May. If you are an angular developer, or considering angular for your next project, knowing these new features are essential. Some of these are long standing features request from the community. Some features (signal, and SSR) bring Angular to par with other modern frameworks. With these features and more coming in v17, modern angular would start looking a lot different from what it is right now. Given the amount the changes angular is bringing in, if we don’t keep ourselves up to date, we won't be able to take advantage of these new features, and our codebase may start looking like a legacy code very soon.

Turns out even Nintendo uses JavaScript. A developer discovered that 2015's Mario vs. Donkey Kong: Tipping Stars for the Wii U and 3DS was written with HTML and JavaScript under the hood and managed to build a shim to get it running in a normal browser.
