hmmm... I have my doubts on that claim, especially when there is no evidence to support it.

"written in typescript" does not mean it's slow. V8 and JavaScriptCore are insanely fast, and typescript is a proven language.

JavaScript (typescript) is interpreted, hence will be slower than a compiled language

fast != fastest
