Do we need a TypeScript BCL

I have been thinking about starting a new TypeScript project TypeScript.BCL.

I'm not quite sure that I need it, but I also feeling dumb writing my own "standard types" for example the Guid. So I was thinking what would a TypeScript.BCL consist of.

Quick brainstorm:

  • Guid
  • Lists, queues, stacks, hashtables, dictionaries and readonly
  • StringBuilder


I know that I already can find most in JavaScript or TypeScript already, but I think i would be nice if there was only one place to get what you need, and a dedicated group to maintain the library. This would also be a good opportunity to meet others that would geek and talk about TypeScript.

So should we, or should we not have a TypeScript base library, that is the question, please post questions or comments that would be great.
