I might sound offensive but I would rather save the TypeScript ‘greenfield’ ecosystem from jQuery. And I used jQ a lot in the past but I think the glory days are gone.

Some of jQuery APIs wouldn't be that easy to convert to TS internally, we'd have to have lots of casting and most likely file size would suffer and that's one thing we care a lot about in the jQuery team. Plus, that would be a barrier for some contributors.
The @types/jquery package is maintained quite well so TS users can consume a typed jQuery anyway.
So, no plans to switch to TypeScript (or to ES6+ with the exception for imports) for now.

It does not sound offensive, it sounds stupid.

OP here and it seems I'm even more dyslectic :)

That's fine, I'll take that my point stands still though.

But that makes no sense, as there are excellent typings for jQuery that Typescript users can use without a barrier. The question was about the language used to develop jQuery, which in this case would not matter for the end-user (save for file-size).
