The TypeScript docs are great https://www.typescriptlang.org/docs/handbook/typescript-in-5-minutes.html I would also recommend using strict to develop a trivial project. It you do this with algebraic data types you’ll learn a lot from the compiler alone

Beyond this the Vue Docs, Elm, OCaml, Haskel are great for learning general design patterns and functional programming, albeit from a fairly wide variety of subjects

I also really have yet to find better introductions to almost anything than the “Learn X in Y Minutes series” https://learnxinyminutes.com/docs/typescript/

When I had first learned JavaScript the general approach was more implementing general functional programming (it is Scheme in C’s clothing after all). When I was later learning TypeScript this tended to be the case as well. More recently, I think Matt Pocock has covered the more advanced type based feature best
