What are some common errors with null types in TypeScript?

Common errors include trying to access properties on null or undefined, and not handling null checks properly.

Can you give me an example of accessing a property on a null type?

Sure! If you have a variable let user: User | null; and you try to access user.name, it will throw an error if user is null.

How can I avoid these errors?

You can use optional chaining (user?.name) or add explicit null checks before accessing properties.

What about using TypeScript's strict null checks?

Enabling strict null checks helps catch these errors at compile time, making your code safer.
