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
Common Causes
- Accessing properties on potentially null/undefined values
- Implicit any types due to missing type annotations
- Function parameters without type annotations
- Assigning wrong type to variable
- 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;Real developers can help you.
You don't need to be technical. Just describe what's wrong and a verified developer will handle the rest.
