Doesn't typescript compile to js anyways? Is it obfuscated?
It transpiles to js and there is some level of stripping for optimization yes.
It's not intentionally obfuscated or minified. Generally it just strips out types and comments, but depending on how it's configured, it will rewrite certain things to work in ES5. At my work our build process uses a separate minification and bundling step, which also serves to a obfuscate our proprietary code.
