# `@typescript-eslint/type-utils`

<PackageLink packageName="type-utils" scope="@typescript-eslint" />

> Type utilities for working with TypeScript within ESLint rules. ✨

This package contains public utilities for working with TypeScript types that ESLint rules often use.
Rules declared in [`@typescript-eslint/eslint-plugin`](./ESLint_Plugin.mdx) use these utility functions.

The utilities in this package are both:

- More generally ESLint-focused than the broad TypeScript utilities in [`ts-api-utils`](https://npmjs.com/package/ts-api-utils)
- Separated from [`@typescript-eslint/utils`](./Utils.mdx) so that that package does not require a dependency on `typescript`

> See [Custom Rules](../developers/Custom_Rules.mdx) for documentation on creating your own custom ESLint rules for TypeScript code.
