    Asynchronous TypeScript

    One of my reasons for choosing TypeScript as a language stack is that it’s built on an asynchronous IO, event-driven programming model, from the ground up. On the server side, idiomatic NodeJS code scales surprisingly well for a dynamic, low ceremony, fast development stack.
