❔ Is there an equivalent feature to TypeScript's Indexed Access Types?

e.g. 
type Example<T> = {
  items: T[]
}

type StringItems = Example<string>["items"]
// string[]

function getStringItem(stringItems:StringItems){
  // ...
}
type Example<T> = {
  items: T[]
}

type StringItems = Example<string>["items"]
// string[]

function getStringItem(stringItems:StringItems){
  // ...
}

I struggle to understand what this does. Doesn't this defeat the whole point of static typing?

Unfortunately C#'s type system is nowhere near as sophisticated as TypeScript's, so sadly this is not possible It's not possible to describe a type through other types like this.

It facilitates reuse of types rather than duplication. e.g. StringItems can be reused as many times as necessary, VS having to write Example<string>["items"] (or a much more complex type 💀) every time. More info @ https://www.typescriptlang.org/docs/handbook/2/indexed-access-types.html Gotcha, thanks for the info!
