Bigger TypeScript projects should now become much more manageable in all code editors

But there is no such implementation AFAIK? How is it making Typescript faster if it's a completely new implementation?

Well a new implementation running TypeScript could be 10x faster than the traditional e.g., NodeJS implementation or something; it's not unusual for things to be compared in such a way.

But certainly, in theory it could become unshackled from JavaScript. Have there been any serious attempts to do so though?

No idea! :)
