Migrating to Angular 2 (Video 20)

The video discusses the future of ES6 and TypeScript, highlighting the current browser support for ES6 and the role of TypeScript in simplifying code complexity. It explains how TypeScript transpiles code to ensure compatibility with current and future JavaScript versions, making it easier to manage code upgrades. The video concludes with the benefits of using TypeScript in the long run.

What is the main challenge in predicting the future of TypeScript and ES6?

• Complexity of JavaScript

• Lack of a crystal ball

• Incompatibility with all browsers

• Absence of TypeScript support

Which browser currently supports the highest percentage of ES6 features?

• Edge

• Firefox

• Chrome 49

• Internet Explorer 11

What percentage of ES6 features does Internet Explorer 11 support?

• 100%

• 15%

• 50%

• 91%

How does TypeScript help in managing code complexity?

• By requiring manual code updates

• By transpiling code to the most efficient JavaScript version

• By eliminating the need for JavaScript

• By supporting only ES5

What will happen when ES6 is fully supported by all browsers?

• Browsers will stop supporting ES5

• Code will be transpiled to ES6 instead of ES5

• TypeScript will become obsolete

• Developers will need to rewrite all code
