I'm just started using typescript in my react project but I'm finding difficulties to identify the actual use of typescript.

Typescript doesn't increase performance. Not sure why you came up with that idea. If you don't find it useful, don't use it. – Jonas Wilms Oct 10 '18 at 08:31

When used with React: a performance benefit might be that it renders the [prop-types](https://github.com/facebook/prop-types) library obsolete. Aside from that, the primary advantage of using TypeScript is the access to [static typing](https://stackoverflow.com/a/1517670/5566355) that it provides, which reduces the complexity of building applications by magnitudes. – Arman Charan Oct 10 '18 at 08:39

By practising. VSCode has a lot of helpful tools. It'll become pretty evident whether TypeScript is for you after your first project. [Static Type Checking - React](https://reactjs.org/docs/static-type-checking.html) is typically a good place to start @su_sundariya – Arman Charan Oct 11 '18 at 07:45
