Can with JSDoc define types? And can you define generic types? To me that is the real power of TypeScript, being able to type every object you use.

Yes you can with @typedef and @template

for those interested, https://jsdoc.app/tags-template.html is 404 but https://github.com/google/closure-compiler/wiki/Generic-Type... appears to be the thing (reinforcing my rage at the JFC situation with JSDoc specification)

and you can always define more complex types in interfaces and import into jsdoc.
