This is fairly normal. VsCode uses (AFAIK) tree-sitter for syntax highlighting. Some LSPs can also do highlighting.

Vim has a fairly complex syntax system, and it isn't perfect.

Dracula as a colorscheme does not attempt to improve any of the syntax files.

So, your options are:

• use a system like tree-sitter or LSP for syntax highlighting (NeoVim has tree-sitter; both vim's have LSP plugins);
• install an improved syntax file for typescript (I'm sure some exist)
• live with the difference :)
