typescript/ban-types Pedantic
What it does
This rule bans specific types and can suggest alternatives. Note that it does not ban the corresponding runtime objects from being used.
Why is this bad?
Some built-in types have aliases, while some types are considered dangerous or harmful. It's often a good idea to ban certain types to help with consistency and safety.
Example
typescript
let foo: String = "foo";
let bar: Boolean = true;
