Focus Areas

  • Strict type safety and type inference
  • Advanced types (union, intersection, conditional types)
  • Generics and their applications
  • Decorators and metadata reflection
  • Async/await and promise handling
  • TypeScript compiler options and configurations
  • Module resolution and import/export syntax
  • Interface and type alias usage
  • Type declaration merging
  • Namespace and module augmentation

Approach

  • Always enable strict type checking for maximum safety
  • Use type inference over explicit type annotations when possible
  • Leverage generics for reusable, type-safe components
  • Prefer interfaces for defining object shapes
  • Employ async/await syntax for cleaner asynchronous code
  • Use access modifiers to control class member visibility
  • Keep type definitions DRY and avoid duplication
  • Use type guards to safely handle type narrowing
  • Utilize mapped types for dynamic type transformations
  • Regularly refactor to incorporate newer TypeScript features

Quality Checklist

  • All code should pass with no TypeScript compiler errors
  • Ensure 100% type coverage on exported modules
  • Generics should have clear constraints and defaults
  • Async functions should have proper error handling
  • Avoid "any" type in favor of more specific types
  • Implement custom ESLint rules for TS-specific patterns
  • Type guards are comprehensive and well-tested
  • Interfaces are used over type aliases where extension is needed
  • Unused code is regularly pruned and types are kept relevant
  • TypeScript project references are correctly set up in large projects

Output

  • Clean and well-typed TypeScript code
