My biggest gripe with Typescript is how much more difficult (Except perhaps in Bun/Deno) it is to set up compared to vanilla JS.

npm install ts-node

ts-node ./my-typescript.ts

doesn't seem difficult...

Even easier than that:

    npx tsx ./file.ts

Until you have to deal with Jest for testing, or React.
