summary

Shows concrete TypeScript tricks and working utilities: uses TypeScript 4.8+ lowercase on string to reject uppercased literals, demonstrates inference prioritization by inferring options before value (fixes a green vs red|yellow bug) and uses intersection with {} to make non‑nullable instead of NonNullable. Builds an includes type guard for readonly tuples, Values and FilterPropertyByType utilities, a hex validator and coordinate generator using recursive template literal types, and exploits tail recursion to produce ranges up to ~1000 numbers that actually compile and catch bad inputs.
