TypeScript enums have some issues

https://react-typescript-cheatsheet.netlify.app/docs/basic/troubleshooting/types/#enum-types

Often a string union is sufficient

To simplify code, we can derive type unions from objects!

const routes = {
  home: '/',
  admin: '/admin',
  users: '/users',
} as const;

Derive the keys of the object

ie `'home' | '/admin' | '/users'`

Derive the keys of the object

type RouteKeys = keyof typeof routes

Derive the values of the object

i.e. '/' | '/admin' | '/users'

Derive the values of the object

type RouteValues = (typeof routes)[keyof typeof routes]
