Pros
Pro Checks to see if you check for Nulls
Because getting those exceptions is just not fun and very pervasive.
Pro Versioned type definitions
Pro There is support in many code editors via the extension
For example, there is good support through the extension in Visual Studio Code, which is a good editor for TypeScript, which is a competitor to Flow.
Pro Babel extension for strip of type annotations
Thanks to the Babel extension for the output, there is minimally modified code that is understandable to the author.
Pro Statical analysing of JavaScript code
Statical analysing of JavaScript code without pre-making any changes to it. But supported annotation types by extending the syntax of the language.
Cons
Con Weak base type definitions even for popular JavaScript libraries
For example, there are definitions for Gulp, React.
