The object type in Typescript

In Typescript, there's a type called object (lowercase 'o'), which represents any non-primitive type. The primitive types as of now are:

• string
• boolean
• number
• bigint
• symbol
• null
• undefined

Any other type is considered a non-primitive type, such as arrays and objects.

Do not get this type confused with Object (uppercase 'o') which describes functionality that is common to all JS objects.

There is also {}, which is the empty type. This describes an object which has no members on its own, but still has access to all properties and methods defined on the Object type.
