+# Section 0: Utility Types
+
+Handy Utility Types used in the rest of this cheatsheet, or commonly used with React+TS apps, with explanation on what they do and how they can help. We will assume knowledge of [mapped types and conditional types](https://mariusschulz.com/blog/series/typescript-evolution) like `Exclude<T, U>` and `ReturnType<T>` but try to build progressively upon them.

+    <code>Omit&lt;T, K extends keyof T&gt;</code>: Subtract keys from one interface from the other.
+  </summary>
+  
+```ts
+/**
+ * Subtract keys from one interface from the other.
+ *
+ * @example
+ * interface One { one: string }
+ * interface Three { one: string, two: string }
+ *
+ * type Two = Omit<Three, keyof One>;
+ *
+ * // The type of Two will be
+ * interface Two { two: string }
+ */
+type Omit<T, K extends keyof T> = Pick<T, Exclude<keyof T, K>>;
+```
+
+You can also supply string literals to omit:
+
+```ts
+type SettingsPageProps = Omit<ServerConfig, 'immutableSetting1' | 'invisibleSetting2'>
+```

+  </summary>
+  
+```ts
+/**
+ * Remove from T the keys that are in common with K
+ */
+type Optionalize<T extends K, K> = Omit<T, keyof K>;
+```
+  
+  An example usage is in our HOC section below.

+    <code>Nullable&lt;T&gt;</code> or <code>Maybe&lt;T&gt;</code>: Make a Type into a Maybe Type
+  </summary>
+  
+```ts
+/**
+ * Make a Type into a Maybe Type
+ */
+type Nullable<T> = T | null
+type Maybe<T> = T | undefined
+```
+
+  Your choice of `null` or `undefined` depends on your approach toward missing values. Some folks feel strongly one way or the other.

+  <summary>
+    <code>Dictionary&lt;T&gt;</code>: Dictionary of string, value pairs
+  </summary>
+  
+```ts
+/**
+ * Dictionary of string, value pairs
+ */
+type Dictionary<T> = { [key: string]: T }
+```
+
+ `[key: string]` is a very handy trick in general.  You can also modify dictionary fields with [Readonly](https://www.typescriptlang.org/docs/handbook/release-notes/typescript-2-8.html) or make them optional or Omit them, etc.

 If you want to conditionally render a component, sometimes is better to use [React's composition model](https://reactjs.org/docs/composition-vs-inheritance.html) to have simpler components and better to understand typings:
