While working with TypeScript, it is very common to find code as follows:
let age: number = 20; let existsFlag: boolean = true; let language: string = 'JavaScript';
TypeScript allows us to assign a type to a variable. But the preceding code is verbose. TypeScript has type inference, meaning TypeScript will verify and apply a type to the variable automatically based on the value that was assigned to it. Let's rewrite the preceding code with a cleaner syntax:
let age = 20; // number let existsFlag = true; // boolean let language = 'JavaScript'; // string
With the preceding code, TypeScript still knows that age is a number, existsFlag is a boolean, and language is a string, so we don't need to explicitly assign a type to these ...
