TypeScript High Performance by Ajinkya Kher

Key FeaturesEfficiently use Data Structures, Language Constructs, & Handle AsynchronyMonitor the performance, Code Quality, & Resource OptimizationsBuild & Deploy Strategies for Large Scale TypeScript ProjectsBook DescriptionIn a world where a tiny decrease in frames per second impacts customer engagement greatly, writing highly scalable code is more of a necessity than a luxury. Using TypeScript you get type checking during development. This gives you the power to write optimized code quickly. This book is also a solid tool to those whore curious to understand the impact of performance in production, and it is of the greatest aid to the proactive developers who like to be cognizant of and avoid the classic pitfalls while coding.The book will starts with explaining the efficient implementation of basic data Structures, data types, and flow control. You will then learn efficient use of advanced language constructs and asynchronous programming. Further, youll learn different configurations available with TSLint to improve code quality and performance. Next, well introduce you to the concepts of profiling and then we deep dive into profiling JS with several tools such as firebug, chrome, fiddler. Finally, youll learn techniques to build and deploy real world large scale TypeScript applications.What you will learnLearn about the critical rendering path, and the performance metrics involved along the sameExplore the detailed inner intricacies of a web browserBuild a large scale front end applications and learn the thought process behind architecting such an effortUnderstand the challenges of scalability and how TypeScript renders itself to the causeLearn efficient usage of TypeScript constructs to deliver high performance and avoid common mistakes and pitfalls that can hamper performanceMonitor performance, resolve and detect performance bottlenecks in production, and learn the tools involvedAbout the AuthorAjinkya Kher is a full stack developer, currently working at Microsoft on the communications infrastructure for Skype and Microsoft teams.
