Overview:
This is a sample product to test how TypeScript can handle type errors using the original calculateTotal function. The function will take a list of items, each with a price property, and return the total price. While the code is simple, it demonstrates TypeScript’s ability to prevent common errors that could otherwise occur in JavaScript.
Key Features:
- Type Safety:
- TypeScript enforces strict types, allowing me to define a
priceas anumber. This catches errors like assigning astringvalue where anumberis expected.
- TypeScript enforces strict types, allowing me to define a
- Early Error Detection:
- With TypeScript’s static typing, errors are caught during development, helping to prevent bugs in production.
- Better Code Documentation:
- The use of
interfacehelps define the shape of data, making it easier for developers to understand the code at a glance.
- The use of
Tech Stack:
- TypeScript:
- A superset of JavaScript that introduces static types to enhance code safety and readability.
