I want to ask the same question for Python and Go. I'd love to see some quality OSS using Python or Go and contribute to them if I can.

There is a good thread on this for Python from the last couple of years. Try searching 'python read' or 'python codebase'

The top comment IIRC is about @tiangolo, the FastAPI guy

This could be a good learning resource, a collection of client & server-side TypeScript projects.

Awesome TypeScript - https://github.com/dzharii/awesome-typescript

And here's a list of projects on GitHub tagged with the topic "TypeScript", sorted by most stars. Many build tools I see on the first page, starting with the TypeScript compiler itself - which is an impressive and interesting codebase, but it may not be so suitable for study purpose.

You might enjoy learning from some books too.

The TypeScript Handbook - https://www.typescriptlang.org/docs/handbook/intro.html

The best opensource projects that you'll stay interested in the medium-long term are projects you actively use. Anything else you'll get bored of.

The same is true of a encyclopedia. If you try to read it directly, word after word, it is boring. However, if you treat it as a reference, as the OP is asking for in Go code, it can be helpful and possibly inspiring.

Meta question: I wonder what it would take to splat a code quality metric on every github repo. Obviously this is a combination of subjective and objective factors, but I wonder if doing this in bulk would lead to a general improvement in the industry. Particularly paired with CoPilot and having some sort of feedback into the training this would be pretty neat...

I really enjoy reading Python code from https://github.com/encode/starlette and https://github.com/encode/httpx

A lot of the Python standard library is written in Python and a good way to see idiomatic Python code. https://github.com/python/cpython/tree/main/Lib
