Functions, Generics, and the Stuff That Looks...

My project: Hermes IDE | GitHub Me: gabrielanhaia Java generics feel like paperwork. TypeScript generics feel like a tool. Same concept, very different experience. I spent years writing Java and PHP before picking up TypeScript. The generics syntax looked familiar enough. <T>, constraints, return types. But once I started writing real code, I realized the similarities were surface-level. Functions in TypeScript behave differently than methods in Java. Generics show up in places I didn't expect.
