Understanding TypeScript Generics


Understanding TypeScript Generics

TypeScript generics are a powerful feature that allows you to create reusable components.

What are Generics?

Generics enable you to create functions, classes, and interfaces that work with multiple types while maintaining type safety.

Basic Example

function identity<T>(arg: T): T {
    return arg;
}

Advanced Usage

Generics can be used with:

  • Functions
  • Classes
  • Interfaces
  • Type constraints

This makes your code more flexible and reusable.
