Unused imports triggering errors in TypeScript

TypeScriptStrict Compiler FlagsnoUnusedLocals & noUnusedParametersintermediate

What this snippet does

noUnusedLocals also applies to imports; if a type or value is imported but never used, the compiler will flag it.

Expected output

Compile Error: 'User' is declared but its value is never read.

Why practise typing this

Typing strict compiler flags 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.
