 For #64661, a [https://github.com/WordPress/wordpress-develop/pull/10900
 PR] is proposed which adds TypeScript checking for the scripts related to
 the CodeMirror code editor integrations. With that in place, core should
 start expanding the scope of which JS files are checked to ensure code
 quality and fix subtle bugs. The same is being done for PHP with PHPStan
 in #61175.

 Note that TypeScript is already being used in Gutenberg. See
