(De)coding conventions

Programming languages are always in flux, and so is the way we use them. In this episode, we dive into the rise of TypeScript, with The ReadME Project’s Senior Editor Mike Melanson outlining its history and evolution. Hosts Neha Batra and Martin Woodward discuss the pros and cons of static typing, and Jordan Harband from TC39 shares his views on the benefits and limitations of TypeScript. We also hear from Aaron Gustafson on AI’s potential to enhance accessibility and the projects leading the charge. And Kingsley Mkpandiok from the CHAOSS Project responds to an #AskRMP submission with tips on encouraging non-code contributions within open source projects.
