Why TypeScript for LegalTech?

TypeScript Strengths

  • Catches errors at compile time instead of runtime
  • Excellent IDE support with autocomplete and refactoring
  • Self-documenting code through types
  • Easier onboarding for new team members

LegalTech Requirements

  • Document automation
  • Case management
  • Compliance
  • E-discovery

Pattern 1

Standard TypeScript architecture patterns

Pattern 2

Best practices for LegalTech implementations

Pattern 3

Scalable design for LegalTech workloads

Performance

TypeScript compiles to JavaScript with no runtime overhead. Use incremental compilation, project references, and proper tsconfig for faster builds.

Security

Type safety helps prevent runtime errors but doesn't replace runtime validation. Use Zod or similar for runtime type checking at system boundaries.

Scaling

TypeScript becomes more valuable as codebases grow. Consider project references for large monorepos to optimize build times.
