Type Checking with Intersections

Explore how TypeScript's type checking uses intersections and generics to create unique types such as different currencies. Understand how this approach improves type safety by preventing invalid casting and promoting consistent code practices. This lesson helps you apply these concepts to manage complex data types effectively.

We'll cover the following...

Using a similar aspect of uniqueness as found in the structure before, it is possible to define a unique type using a generic class and intersection. The result is many new types that have a private, unique property which makes the shared type unique in turn, depending on its implementation.

The epitome of this pattern of intersections is ...
