    Sure, but with lots of generated code that’s going to be hard to be human readable and changeable. It’s definitely more work to add a feature to the code generated by the compiler, than to add a feature if the code was initially written in JavaScript.

      By default, doesn’t tsc just output the source TS files with type info stripped? Worst case you run a formatter on that output and you’re done.

      There’s some nonstandard TS features like the iterator shim and decorators and such, but you don’t get those by default from what I remember.
