TypeScript and Node

Are there any limitations using TypeScript in a Node project compared to using Javascript at the server side for a web application?

Are all existing Node modules out there totally reusable without modification?

(PS: I am ok to use Visual Studio as the IDE.)

No. You just have the overhead of setting up TypeScript, for the sake of its advantages : https://basarat.gitbooks.io/typescript/content/docs/why-typescript.html

Yes. Just set allowJs:true in your tsconfig and you don't even need a declaration file.
