Global Augmentation

Last updated

What is Global Augmentation?

Global augmentation in TypeScript lets you add or modify existing global types and interfaces. This is particularly useful when working with JavaScript libraries that don't have TypeScript definitions or when you want to extend existing TypeScript definitions to suit your specific project needs. It essentially allows you to declare properties or methods on globally available objects (like window or built-in JavaScript objects) from within your TypeScript code.
