Yeah, ideally TypeScript would be natively supported. Or maybe just Python, which is sort-of strictly typed, and definitely won't do "wat". Alas, it's not the world we live in, and browsers take JavaScript.

Python supports type hints, but you need to use a type checker like Pyre or Pyright to actually check them. Python itself doesn't do anything with the type hints.
