  • by x32x01 ||
Type-Fest is a powerful collection of essential TypeScript utility types that go beyond the standard library.
Developed by the open-source community, this toolkit helps developers write more reliable, type-safe, and maintainable code with less effort. 🧠

🧩 Why Use Type-Fest?​

The TypeScript standard library provides many built-in types - but sometimes, you need more flexibility.
That’s where Type-Fest comes in, offering high-quality, reusable types for everyday coding scenarios.

These types help:
✅ Improve code readability and consistency
✅ Prevent common type errors
✅ Save time by avoiding repetitive type definitions

🛠️ Key Features​

Here are a few examples of what Type-Fest includes:
  • PartialDeep<T> - Make all properties in an object recursively optional.
  • Jsonify<T> - Convert any TypeScript type to a valid JSON type.
  • PackageJson - Type definition for a package.json file.
  • Merge<T, U> - Combine two types into one unified type.

Each utility type is thoroughly tested, well-documented, and lightweight - making it ideal for both small projects and enterprise-scale apps. 🚀



⚙️ Installation & Usage​

You can add Type-Fest to your project easily via npm or yarn:
Bash:
npm install type-fest
# or
yarn add type-fest

Then import the utilities you need:
JavaScript:
import { Merge } from 'type-fest';

type User = { name: string };
type Account = { email: string };

type UserProfile = Merge<User, Account>;
// Result: { name: string; email: string }
