This looks very interesting. Any chance it would compile to asm.js? That would be awesome.

They are going to make it happen.

The trouble is that, at the moment, asm.js is not a garbage collected environment, whereas TypeScript is much closer to JS than it is to C.

Static typing alone is not sufficient to make asm.js a good target for a language, I think.
