very good practical example 🙃

[@rafmyles]

Can someone please explain why Enums are useful and where they can be used?

[@shreyasjejurkar1233]

To force the value to variable that user can assign. Like gender for example which can be male or female or maybe other, but not anything other than that. Then you can create enum for those 3 and can assign it to variable. And now that variable can only have those either of those 3 values, and nothing else.

Shreyas Jejurkar thank you! I understood after reading your comment and rewatching the video.

[@shreyasjejurkar1233]

@@rafmyles yeah, sure its so simple. 😊😊

You can use it with a Switch statement, or in React with useReducer, to dispatch multiple actions.

[@erickbravo5299]

what about string enums?

[@matthewbeardsley7004]

are enums in Javascript?

[@TheRahulDBZ]

nope..just typescript..enum code get converted to function in javascript..if you are following the tutorial simultaneosly then you can see it in your app.js file or in his github course file.. like this: var ResourceType; (function (ResourceType) { ResourceType[ResourceType["BOOK"] = 0] = "BOOK"; ResourceType[ResourceType["AUTHOR"] = 1] = "AUTHOR"; ResourceType[ResourceType["FILM"] = 2] = "FILM"; ResourceType[ResourceType["DIRECTOR"] = 3] = "DIRECTOR"; })(ResourceType || (ResourceType = {})); ;

Cool video

[@ridl27]

ty.

[@tomasznowak2032]

nice

[@reihaxhiraj996]

Excellent Work but I have to say that most of the conceptes of TS seem kind of pointless fro this perspective like Enums are just some kind of array.I MAY BE HORRIBLY WRONG , just saying.
