TypeScript: Validate mapped types and const context

Read Original

This TypeScript article demonstrates a problem with mapped types where the 'keyof' operator returns overly broad types. It provides a solution using generics ('T extends ChannelDefinition') and const context ('as const') to infer and work with the actual, specific keys of an object, preventing the use of incorrect keys and improving type safety.
