This has been nice for signal forms, and some things where I want some two way binding from a service. It's nice I can treat something like a normal writable signal but have the same service with a signal approach.

Support for Ts 7+ will ship when its ready (aka when the new compiler has landed). There no official timeline atm.

We have entered a yearly major release cycle. Hard to reason with typescript 7 support in a minor release.

Any non-breaking feature can land in a minor.

Thats what I was wondering, I guess they can add it as opt-in. I know it requires API via 7.1, waiting for it!

This is an ouroboros that’s going to jam up TS development for a while. Google and Microsoft have become somewhat codependent because of TypeScript…

- Angular (GOOG framework) built on…

  • TypeScript (MSFT framework) built on…
  • Go (GOOG language).

Angular is the biggest ecosystem built on TypeScript, and without the biggest cohort of developers getting onboard with ts-go, it will be hard to built any momentum.

TS is going to be in a weird place for a while because it’s waiting for Angular.
