Microsoft has released a new repo 'typescript-go' that provides a native-port to the TypeScript (TS) compiler.

The current TS compiler 'tsc' translates TS code to optimized JavaScript (JS) code which then executes in one of the available JS runtimes (Node, V8 etc.).
A 10x Faster TypeScript - TypeScript
Embarking on a native port of the existing TypeScript compiler and toolset to achieve a 10x performance speed-up.
