TypeScript Strict Mode Type Errors

Strict mode enabled but type errors prevent build. 'Cannot assign type' and 'missing type' errors. Null/undefined safety enforced. Code works but TypeScript won't compile.

Strict mode enforces stricter type checking. Requires more explicit typing but catches bugs early.

Error Messages You Might See

Object is possibly null Property does not exist on type Implicit any type Cannot assign type
Object is possibly nullProperty does not exist on typeImplicit any typeCannot assign type

Common Causes

  1. Accessing properties on potentially null/undefined values
  2. Implicit any types due to missing type annotations
  3. Function parameters without type annotations
  4. Assigning wrong type to variable
  5. Not handling null check before access

How to Fix It

Add type annotations and null checks:

// Before - strict error
const value = getData();
const name = value.name; // Error: value might be null

// After
const value: User | null = getData();
if (value) {
  const name = value.name; // OK
}

Or use optional chaining:

const name = value?.name;

Yes, it catches bugs early. Start with strict: true in tsconfig.json.

How do I handle possibly null values?
