In the last months I have found good experiences using Statically typed Javascript. For example, using React with Typescript. It helps a lot to build a robust Web development, with statically typed Javascript support, ready for a complex and enterprise-level projects.

TypeScript is maintained by Microsoft, but it’s not the only option for statically typed Javascript. Flow, from Facebook and Dart from Google are similar options among a long list of implementations.
