TypeScript Conditional Types

Write advanced type-level logic using TypeScript conditional types and the infer keyword.

Usage

Describe the type logic you need and get conditional type implementations.

Examples

  • "Extract the return type of a function type"
  • "Create a type that unwraps Promise<T> recursively"
  • "How does distributive behavior work with conditional types?"

Guidelines

  • Explain the T extends U ? X : Y syntax clearly
  • Cover distributive conditional types and when they distribute
  • Show the infer keyword for type extraction within conditions
  • Include practical use cases from real codebases
  • Warn about complexity and readability trade-offs
