TypeScript should soon become 10x faster on average. Anders Hejlsberg's team at Microsoft is working on a radical improvement to its performance with a new native port...
Bigger TypeScript projects should now become much more manageable in all code editors
But there is no such implementation AFAIK? How is it making Typescript faster if it’s a completely new implementation?
Well a new implementation running TypeScript could be 10x faster than the traditional e.g., NodeJS implementation or something; it’s not unusual for things to be compared in such a way.
But certainly, in theory it could become unshackled from JavaScript. Have there been any serious attempts to do so though?

No idea! :)
There is a serious attempt for that actually: https://www.assemblyscript.org/
It doesn’t offer full compatibility with the regular TypeScript though, despite being very similar.
Nice! Thanks for sharing
