Microsoft Releases TypeScript 7.0 with a Native Go Compiler, Delivering 10x Faster Builds

Microsoft has released TypeScript 7.0, featuring a native compiler that improves build speeds by 8x to 12x. Notable performance enhancements were evidenced in real codebases. The version lacks a stable programmatic API, anticipated in 7.1. Transitioning includes a compatibility package for existing tooling, and TypeScript remains an open-source project. By Daniel Curtis
