Does TypeScript have a Null-conditional operator

Question

Is there any operator like ?. in TypeScript that can check if the variable is null or not defined like Kotlin? Like

person?.getName()?.firstName ?: \"None\"
         


        

Answer 1

The actual good answer is in Andreas' comment. Your example would be implemented as below from Typescript 3.7 onwards :

person?.getName()?.firstName ?? "None"
