minus-squaredan@upvote.aulinkfedilinkarrow-up1·edit-23 months agoTypeScript doesn’t need the “function” keyword for a method in an object or on a class though. const foo = { bar(): string { ... } } which I assume is doable because the syntax is unambiguous. PHP’s object orientation is similar to languages like Java and C#, which is what I was comparing to.
