> JSX/TSX, despite what React people might want you to believe, are not part of the language.

Similarly: TypeScript, despite what Node people might want you to believe, is not part of the JavaScript language.

People have to look into Typescript as a JavaScript linter and a babel replacement, nothing else.

In fact, the team has back pedaled into trying to make its own thing like in the early days.

Yes. As pointed out by someone else I misunderstood and it's the other tsx they were talking about.

I've always used ts-node, so I forgot about tsx's existence, but still those are just tools used for convenience.

Nothing currently actually runs TypeScript natively and the blessed way was always to compile it to JS and run that.
