This is only partially true. TypeScript does have tsserver built in, which is where the language server design originated from (just with a slightly different API). The VS Code TypeScript integration is a layer around that, not a custom implementation. There are also a couple other TypeScript language servers out there (which again simply wrap tsserver and translate the APIs) which work great.
