Function of

Create a Maybe from any value.

To specify that the result should be interpreted as a specific type, you may invoke Maybe.of with an explicit type parameter:

import * as Maybe from 'true-myth/maybe';
const foo = Maybe.of<string>(null);
Copy

This is usually only important in two cases:

1. If you are intentionally constructing a Nothing from a known null or undefined value which is untyped.
2. If you are specifying that the type is more general than the value passed (since TypeScript can define types as literals).

Typeparam

T The type of the item contained in the Maybe.
