Announcing TypeScript 1.0
TypeScript 1.0 Today, we're happy to announce TypeScript 1.0. First, we want to give a big "thank you!" to everyone who has helped us over the last year and a half to meet this goal. Together, we've grown a language, tools, and a community around creating large-scale JavaScript applications.

Announcing TypeScript 1.0RC
We’re happy to mark another significant milestone for the TypeScript project with the release of the 1.0 Release Candidate. Since the first release in October of 2012, the TypeScript language has grown to support generics, which enables rich typing of JavaScript libraries.
