Most developers use TypeScript todayโฆ
But almost nobody knows who built it.
Anders Hejlsberg didnโt just create one language โ
He built two of the most important tools in modern programming.
First, he created C# at Microsoft to compete with Java.
Then years later, he saw JavaScript breaking at scaleโฆ
So he built TypeScript to fix it โ without replacing it.
That decision changed everything.
Today, TypeScript powers apps, startups, and tech giants.
And most people donโt even realize
It came from one developer.
