While working on a TypeScript project, I needed to add extra information (metadata) to classes and their properties, such as logging when a method runs or validating input, without modifying their actual implementation. That’s when I discovered TypeScript decorators. Decorators allow you to add metadata, modify, or extend the behavior of classes, methods, and properties … Read more >>

When I first started working with TypeScript classes, I was searching for solutions to multiple ways of constructing an object in TypeScript, similar to those in Java. After searching, I discovered that TypeScript doesn’t support traditional constructor overloading. However, with an alternative approach that utilizes multiple constructor signatures and a single implementation, we can achieve … Read more >>
Recently, I was working on a TypeScript project where I needed to process user transactions in the exact order they were received. The issue was that there’s no built-in Queue data structure in TypeScript. So we need a proper implementation to handle this common scenario.
