True, but less convenient than using an array in the first place.

I used to enjoy the flexibility that JS provides. And IDEs do a pretty good job of filling the holes!

Exactly.

My last project, I went all in on typescript. And I have caught so many more errors before even compiling. It’s like having tests. It gives a hell of a lot more confidence.

I can understand that too. Although, IDEs also catch a lot of type-related errors in vanilla JS.

I’m not a TypeScript person, sorry. 😅

Hi,

I’m feeling the same and wondering the same, did you ended up trying this, and if yes, do you have some advice on how to manage this particular use case ?

Thanks

I just found two packages that do the same thing as I did :

• indexed-array
• keyed-array

The last one comes with a blog post explaining the same things I did !

Yes but no thanks, cf. my reply to @Zushii@feddit.de.
