Bold claim. Before making the jump to TS, I had used JSDoc extensively for a few years. While it does work as a replacement, it is extremely clunky, and if you use VSCode you sometimes had to fight with the implementation of JSDoc specs in intellisense… Not sure if it got better recently.
Tried it in the past but ultimately abandoned it, as then release numbers lost all added meaning. I can remember what happened in release 2.0.0 or (kinda) 3.5.0, but what the hell was release 2025.02.15? Why did it break this random function?
