Typescript - HTMLTextAreaElement or HTMLInputElement instead of HTMLElement -- @see: https://stackoverflow.com/a/33460539
Raw
html-input.ts
// ⛔️ Don't do this
const textbox: HTMLTextAreaElement = document.getElementById("theme");
// You'll get following error:
// Type 'HTMLElement' is missing the following properties from type 'HTMLTextAreaElement': autocomplete, cols, defaultValue, dirName, and 26 more.
// ✅ Do this
var controlCheckbox = <HTMLTextAreaElement>document.getElementById("mainTextArea")
// Or for input elements
var controlCheckbox = <HTMLInputElement>document.getElementById("mainCheckbox")
