Reverting back to js to prepare for ES6 instead of TypeScript.

@RyanFarley Not a TS fan? |
|
lol no :) |

Due to the issue above, and the fact that TypeScript does not support stamping in an AMD module ID, we are backing off (I had a branch dedicated to TypeScript modules, it was not yet merged). Are you just against TypeScript, or transpiling in general? We are considering pulling in my topic-babel branch and going ES6 to stay with the standard. |

Not exactly against transpiling, just never been a fan of typescript, but that's mainly because it feels less javascripty and I like javascript to feel javascripty - but to be honest I suppose I've never really given it a fair try. I'd be all for going es6 with babel. |

Typescript is nice, there is no doubt about that. Hopefully the TC39 committee will get something going in this area (Brendan Eich appears to be a fan of TS). After ES6 (Ecmascript 2015) they plan on doing a yearly summer release, or that was the plan. So hopefully we see ES7/ES8 soon! We just need Apple to get on board and start doing rolling releases for Safari. |

Jumping in here too.. Glad to see you dropped the typescript path - not a fan either. Agree w/Ryan's comments * 1000% ;-) |
