Luckily, type definitions for many libraries have been added under name as part of the DefinitelyTyped project. What about the little functions we are using from Lodash and Ramda?īy default, there is no IntelliSense or type information for them 1 The editor is showing red squiggly lines under console.log(greet(42)) Src/app.ts(3,19): error TS2345: Argument of type '42' is not assignable Then any attempt toĬall it with a non-string argument will show an error.
