I used ActionScript 3 back in the noughties and was so excited for ES4 in the browser. Adobe open-sourcing Tamarin made it seem it was a done deal (I didn't follow the politics). I was so disappointed when it was killed. It did mean that when I tried Angular 2 the best part of a decade later I was delighted with how familiar TypeScript felt.
