Using the ReturnType Type Helper
Following the pattern we used in the previous exercise, we can use the ReturnType type helper to extract the return type of a function.
Update the User type to use ReturnType with typeof createUser passed in:
type User = ReturnType<typeof createUser>;
Now, User will h

And now we're gonna end up with ID, name, and email all in here. Beautiful stuff. Return type again, it accepts a function,

So now if I add something up here, like phone is whatever, then we get an extra attribute inside phone there too. So this is another way that you can derive types from
00:39 values, even if those values are relatively complex. Very cool.
