TypeScript Enums provide a way to define a set of constants having some name and to make the code more readable and maintainable. Enums allow developers to represent a group of related values with descriptive names, enhancing the code clarity and reducing the risk of errors related to using incorrect values. Assigning meaningful names to numeric or string-based constants enhances code clarity and reduces the likelihood of errors associated with using incorrect values. They make the codebase self-documenting, simplifying maintenance, and aiding in understanding logical concepts. Enums also support reverse mapping, allowing developers to retrieve enum values from their associated names, further contributing to the convenience and reliability of TypeScript applications.
