Description

Hi @sidorares !

I was curious if there's an interest in a total typescript conversion of this project. I started this as an exercise/experiment and noticed the code is hella clean which makes this relatively easy (just a big grind, no big refactors).

If this is a goal of this project to eventually make this switch, I can do the conversion with a future pull request in mind, but if the intent is to keep this a Javascript project I will just keep my fork and make more dramatic changes.
