I would highly recommend turning off no implicit any of you haven’t already — implicit any _will_ make it harder for you to figure out how to solve all the typing issues because it will make it significantly harder for you to understand the way type inference works by inspection. — E.g. if you are learning the typescript by looking at example code — a block of code which only types correctly because the compiler implicitly inferred the any type somewhere within can very easily lead you very far astray from understanding how the type system actually works ...

You might have to fix a bunch more errors but at least those are easy to fix (just add any explicitly to the type — or better yet, add the real type if it’s obvious) ...

Edit: I meant to say ... turning on no implicit any (prevent the inference engine from inferring the any type)
