Prepending an element to a generic tuple in TypeScript

TypeScriptAdvanced TuplesVariadic Tuple Typesadvanced

What this snippet does

Spreading a generic tuple U after a fixed type T creates a new tuple with T at the front and U's elements following.

Expected output

[ 'id', 1, 2 ]

Why practise typing this

Typing advanced tuples 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.
