Idiomatic TypeScript and idiomatic JavaScript are nearly the same; it's not like the C vs. C++ situation. A design goal of TypeScript is to make it possible to define types for idiomatic JavaScript programs, and I think they meet that goal pretty well. It's one reason the type system is much more advanced and flexible than, say, Java. You might see little differences here and there due to limitations in typechecking and the enum feature, but fundamentally TypeScript is just about adding structure and safety to your code rather than changing the way you code.
