WebStorm charges 69 dollars a year for better TypeScript error messages. Pretty TypeScript Errors does it free. This VS Code extension takes those cryptic walls of parentheses and unreadable type errors and makes them actually human-readable with syntax highlighting and plain English translations. Over 14,000 developers have starred it. It even won the Productivity Booster award at JSNation. It supports React, Vue, Svelte, Astro, and more out of the box. Star it if this saved you money.
