Disable static type checking for typescript

Created by: tomitrescak

NOT

Hi, I love how easy is to include typescript, but I was wondering whether it would be possible to disable static type checking and let only Babel strip types. The reasons are following:

  1. In dev you are using external UI to compile and check types. This is doing the same work twice. This leads to point 2
  2. Performance, I assume that this would decrease build and rebuild times
  3. Refactoring. Often, during refactor I’d like to test partial functionality even when errors are present. Currently it’s all or nothing.

All and all I think static type check is great during build times, but at dev stage it comes in the way.

What do you think? Can you maybe point me to place where I could disable it? Thanks
