My question is very brief. I am new to TypeScript, been searching around here and there but didn't find yet an answer.
Does any experienced TypeScripter know if there is a character Type or an easy way to achieve one?

Typescript expands on statically typing the native types of javascript. Javascript does not have a char type. So type-script doesn't have a char type.
There is no character type. In some languages, there is a special “character” type for a single character. For example, in the C language and in Java it is called “char”. In JavaScript, there is no such type.
What does ?: mean in TypeScript? Using a question mark followed by a colon ( ?: ) means a property is optional. That said, a property can either have a value based on the type defined or its value can be undefined .
TypeScript has two special types, null and undefined , that have the values null and undefined respectively. We mentioned these briefly in the Basic Types section. By default, the type checker considers null and undefined assignable to anything. Effectively, null and undefined are valid values of every type.
Typescript expands on statically typing the native types of javascript. Javascript does not have a char type. So type-script doesn't have a char type. If only string & { length: 1 } could be statically inferred... I tried but it throws an error when trying to assign any one-character string to a variable of that type.
A TypeScript string literal type defines a type that accepts specified string literal. Use the string literal types with union types and type aliases to define types that accept a finite set of string literals. Was this tutorial helpful ?
Even though the parameter s didn’t have a type annotation, TypeScript used the types of the forEach function, along with the inferred type of the array, to determine the type s will have. This process is called contextual typing because the context that the function occurred within informs what type it should have.
In typeScript, type System represents different types of datatypes which are supported by TypeScript. The data type classification is as given below: User-defined Data Types: Apart from built-in data types, user can also define its own data type.
TypeScript does not have a type for representing fixed-length strings.
