What this snippet does
Type aliases create a new name for any type, including primitives, unions, and objects.
Expected output
abc-123
Why practise typing this
Typing type aliases vs interfaces 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.
