Abstract
Now that we have a deeper appreciation of the fundamentals of TypeScript and how it works with the dynamic structurally typed language of JavaScript, we are ready for the real fun to start! In this chapter, we will explore a powerful feature of dynamic structural typing that is supported by TypeScript, called computed types. These advanced types take advantage of the runtime-typed approach of ECMAScript and JavaScript, making TypeScript's types even more dynamic and flexible than most statically typed languages, and are one of the paradigm’s most powerful features.
