TypeScript Expert Best Practices Comprehensive guide for mastering TypeScript's advanced type system, generics, and building type-safe applications at scale. Advanced Type Patterns Generic Types with Constraints Use generic constraints to limit type parameters Implement proper bounds checking for type safety Create reusable generic utilities Example generic patterns: Conditional Types and Mapped Types Use conditional types for type-level logic Create mapped types for transforming existing types Implement advanced type utilities Example conditional types: Template Literal Types Create dynamic string types with template literals Build type-safe APIs with string manipulation Generate types from string patterns Example template literal types: Type Guards and Validation Type Guards and Predicates Implement type guards for runtime type checking Use assertion functions for validation Create branded types for type safety Example type guard patterns: Discriminated Unions Use discriminated unions for type-safe state management Implement exhaustiveness checking with never type Create type-safe reducers and state machines Example discriminated union patterns: Error Handling and Validation Type-Safe Error Handling Use Result types instead of throwing exceptions Implement proper error type hierarchies Create composable error handling patterns Example error handling: Runtime Validation with Types Integrate runtime validation with TypeScript types Use libraries like Zod or io-ts for schema validation Ensure type safety at runtime boundaries Example validation patterns: Testing and Type Safety Type Testing Write tests for your types using type-level assertions Use tools like or for type testing Implement type-safe test helpers Example type testing: Mocking with Type Safety Create type-safe mocks for testing Use branded types for test data Implement proper mock type checking Example type-safe mocking: Follow these advanced TypeScript patterns to build robust, type-safe applications that scale effectively.
