Problem of Express Request with Typescript

Description

🧠 In this video, I’ll show you how to extend the Express Request object in TypeScript so that your IDE and compiler can recognize custom properties — like req.user, req.id, or anything else you need for your middleware or authentication logic. We’ll cover: ✅ Why TypeScript doesn’t recognize new properties on req by default ✅ How to use Type Augmentation to extend Express types ✅ A real-world example with middleware attaching user data ✅ Best practices for clean, type-safe Express code 📘 Perfect for Node.js and TypeScript developers who want to make their codebase more robust and maintainable. 🧩 Tech Stack: Node.js, Express.js, TypeScript 💬 Don’t forget to like 👍, comment 💭, and subscribe 🔔 for more TypeScript, Node.js, and backend development content. 👇 Connect with me: 🌐 https://afaqjaved.com 💼 LinkedIn: https://linkedin.com/in/afaqjaved 💻 GitHub: https://github.com/AfaqJaved #TypeScript #Express #NodeJS #BackendDevelopment #WebDevelopment #Coding #TypeSafety
