-> Note: You can annotate `placeholders` to be any `[]`. Whetever you annotate it as, TypeScript will type check to make sure the placeholders used to call the tag match the annotation. For example if you expect to deal with `string` or `number`s you can annotate `...placeholders:(string | number)[]`

 #### Generated JS
 For pre ES6 compile targets the code is fairly simple. Multiline strings become escaped strings. String interpolation becomes *string concatenation*. Tagged Templates become function calls.
