I have been working now for 2 years with Typescript on a heavy SPA in combination with ASP.Net / AngularJS 1.5 components, and absolutely love it. I have zero compiler issues. We started with plain javascript but switched to Typescript later on, and it still amazes me how many small mistakes we made that have been preventing by just adding typing. Automatic Refactoring and Find Usages alone are worth 10x the small delay in compilation.

The biggest gripe I have is that Chrome debugging is hell, because sometimes it will recognized the typescript, sometimes only the javascript. I have hit Ctrl-P many times to "establish" mappings between files running in IIS Express and local files. Miss and hit.

I use console.log all the time so I don't understand your comment in that regard. It works perfectly fine with Typescript.

Ah yes I had forgotten about the source map issues. My point is there is almost always something wrong with it depending on the project. The source maps issues are pretty serious.
