AtScript is a language created to help developers read JavaScript. Similar to Microsoft's TypeScript, Google has created AtScript to improve JavaScript by providing a much easier way to manage it. AtScript is designed to work alongside TypeScript. AtScripted is influenced by TypeScript but Typescript lacks runtime introspection and metadata annotations. <ref> Harvey Miško.
