Failing examples

The following patterns are considered problems:

/**
 * @param {Function} fooBar
 */
function quux (fooBar) {
  console.log(fooBar(3));
}
// Message: Prefer a more specific type to `Function`

/**
 * @param {string|Array<Function>} abc
 */
function buzz (abc) {}
// Message: Prefer a more specific type to `Function`

Passing examples

The following patterns are not considered problems:

/**
 * @param {SomeType} abc
 */
function quux (abc) {}

// To avoid referencing a generic Function, define a callback
//   with its inputs/outputs and a name.
/**
 * @callback          FOOBAR
 * @param    {number} baz
 * @return   {number}
 */


// Then reference the callback name as the type.
/**
 * @param {FOOBAR} fooBar
 */
function quux (fooBar) {
  console.log(fooBar(3));
}

/**
 * @param {string|Array<FOOBAR>} abc
 */
function buzz (abc) {}
