Tighten up types for Entity API by willeastcott · Pull Request #7560 · playcanvas/engine At the moment, the Entity API has reasonably weak typings. This PR improves the situation, particularly for addComponent. I confirm I have read the contributing guidelines and signed the Contributo...

I've made an attempt to improve this. Check it out:

So I've been thinking about this literally over the last day! So very timely. You're right: Entity#addComponent specifies 'any' for the type of the component options. And I was thinking how I could tighten that up. But it's tricky coz the type of the options will depend on the name of the component.

I'm really interested in that feedback. I've done a ton of work over the last year to improve the API reference (generate using TypeDoc) and the types in the code (written with JSDoc). Can you give me some pointers to the worst offending things that annoy you please? Perhaps I can help!
