The first (?) interactive TypeScript type debugger. Primarily built for the byte-code/VM of the new type checker, but is actually already quite useful to debug types by simply stepping through it.💪. I will compile it to WebAssembly in the next days to let it run in the browser.

I don't understand. If junior software engineers are not hired then who will takeover after the senior veteran engineers retire?.
