TypeScript vs Go

Use TypeScript for browser audio or embedding, and Go for terminal tools and services. Both render the same state model, but their defaults and delivery status differ. Go availability must be checked before using its examples.

Aspect	TypeScript	Current Go source
Distribution	Public npm package	Current API requires matching SDK/protocol source; public v0.1.0 is older
Control	gRPC-web `Subscribe` + unary `Send`	Connect `Subscribe` + unary `Send`
Address	`serverUrl`, normally HTTPS	`Addr` = `host:port`; constructs plain `http://`, no TLS option
Open	`connect` returns immediately and queues early intents	`Dial` opens the subscription; doesn't await a cached snapshot; its context doesn't cancel the stream
Send result	Most commands return void; `send_failed` on `onError`	Most commands return a send error
Auto-answer	`true` by default	`false` by default
Answer policy	Own outbound ringing offer, excluding callbacks	Same
Register arguments	Defaults to `["webrtc"]`	Variadic, no default; current server ignores capabilities in both cases
Current state	`view`, `activeCall()`	`View()`, `ActiveCall()`
Subscribe	Immediate cache callback, then updates; returns unsubscribe	Immediate cache callback, then updates; no unsubscribe
Stream end	`disconnected` on thrown failure; clean end silent	No disconnect callback; closes media
Recovery	Application owns reconnect and token renewal	Same
Notifications	`onNotification`; see sequence caveat	No dedicated notification callback
Media default	Browser mic/speaker WebRTC; `null` disables media	Synthetic WebRTC silence/RTP counts; nil selects this default
Media interface	`answer`, `close`	`Answer`, `Stats`, `Close`
Enums	`CallLifecycle.RINGING`	`CallLifecycle_CALL_LIFECYCLE_RINGING`
Password helper	Optional client ID; default `manager`	Fixed `manager`
PKCE helpers	`pkceChallenge`, `buildAuthorizeUrl`, `authorizationCodeGrant` (full response)	`GeneratePKCE`, `PkceAuthorizeURL`, `AuthorizationCodeGrant` (access token only)
Revoke helper	`revokeToken`	`RevokeToken`, `RevokeTokenClient`
Cleanup	`await close()`	`Close()` returns error; usually deferred
Concurrency	Event loop; keep callbacks short	Serialized sends; synchronize shared callback state

Registration loads data and requests reachability in both clients. A media-free observer and a silent-media client differ; neither should register without considering where calls will ring. See TypeScript control only and Go automation.
