# bashi vs TypeScript Recipes

The clearest difference is rating: TypeScript Recipes at 5.0 against bashi's 4.4. TypeScript Recipes also leads on monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases) and review sentiment (100% vs 88%). bashi's advantage is ratings volume (29 vs 3) and iOS requirement (14.0 vs 16.0). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. bashi sells 7 one-off in-app purchases and TypeScript Recipes sells 4 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

TypeScript Recipes holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: bashi has 29 ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two.
