## Overview

When trying to eliminate `any` from your codebase, it's useful to know about the `unknown` type. It is a safer alternative to `any`. Both `any` and `unknown` represent an unknown type. However, there is a key difference between these two:

* all types are assignable to the `any` type and the `any` type is assignable to any other type 
* all types are assignable to the `unknown` type, but the `unknown` type is not assignable to any type
