At first it's really more attractive something for smaller teams building side projects. Maybe also small sub-components.

When dealing with TypeScript and the usual suspects like React + Redux, or AngularJS and its ilk, what bothers me is all the boilerplate and complexity. TypeScript contains a lot of baggage from Javascript.

A functional, well featured language that doesn't require a humongous runtime as a download (like Python on WASM, which works, but like 40mb to get you started...) might be an attractive solution there.
