  How to install the Classic Teams for Business client?

  This article explains briefly and straightforwardly (and in a frustrated tone, the reasons of which you might already know) how to install the Classic Microsoft Teams for Business client, instead of the "new" client. I doubt the method will work for very long, but we'll see. Background The new Microsoft Teams client is great. It's shiny. It has some of the bells and whistles of the old one. And it's faster (most of the time). You should probably use it, unless it doesn't work for you.

  How to solve "error TS2354: This syntax requires an imported helper but module 'tslib' cannot be found." when running npm build scripts?

  This article explains a solution to another dumb issue I ran into when checking out someone else's repository and trying to build and run the solution. I'm calling the issue "dumb" because it's not like I'm practicing rocket surgery here. And the solution isn't particularly high-flying either. Then again, neither am I - I'm just trying to add a couple of null checks to a widget that keeps crashing. But let's get to it.
