Characteristic | TypeScript | Carbon |
---|---|---|
Syntax | Similar to JavaScript with added type annotations and some extra features. | C++-like syntax with modern enhancements and explicit type declarations. |
Paradigm | Multi-paradigm: supports object-oriented, functional, and imperative programming. | Primarily object-oriented and procedural, designed as a successor to C++. |
Typing | Statically typed with optional type annotations and type inference. | Statically typed with strong, explicit type system. |
Performance | Runs on JavaScript engines; performance is similar to JavaScript. | Compiled language; aims for high performance similar to or better than C++. |
Libraries and frameworks | Extensive ecosystem inherited from JavaScript; works with most JS libraries and frameworks. | Very limited libraries and frameworks as it is still experimental. |
Community and support | Large, active community with strong support from Microsoft and open source contributors. | Small, emerging community; mainly experimental with limited support. |
Learning curve | Gentle for JavaScript developers; requires learning type system and tooling. | Steep, especially for those unfamiliar with C++-like languages; documentation and resources are limited. |
