Issue
Can someone please explain the difference between Boolean and boolean in Typescript?
Solution
Uppercase Boolean
is an object type.
Lowercase boolean
is a primitive type.
You should always use boolean
(the primitive type in your programs).
This is because, the Typescript type system does not force an object to its primitive type, while JavaScript does.
You shouldn’t write:
function yourFunction(foo: Boolean)
But instead always write:
function yourFunction(foo: boolean)
