What this snippet does
In TypeScript, caught errors are typed as 'any' or 'unknown' by default, requiring type narrowing before accessing properties.
Expected output
CRASH
Why practise typing this
Typing async & promises code builds muscle memory for the symbols and indentation TypeScript uses most, which prose-based typing tests never cover. DevType measures your words per minute and accuracy on this snippet and tracks the individual characters you mistype, so later lessons can target them.
