I think you missed the part where they said you don't need classes for POJOs and models i.e. things which only contain data and do nothing else. If you want methods that operate against the inner data of an object then totally write classes

It’s just that they started their post by saying that classes in Typescript should be avoided. A message "x should be avoided" is very different from "you don’t need x". Compare the statement "you don’t need redux", which has been incorporated into titles of numerous blog posts, with the statement "redux should be avoided".
