• You can't create an instance of an interface since Typescript doesn't "translate" it into js. You can check the js that is created and you will see nothing in it. It's simple for compile errors, type safety and intelisense.

  interface IStackOverFlow
  {
     prop1 : string;
     prop2 : number;
  }
  
  public MyFunc(obj : IStackOverFlow)
  {
      // do stuff
  }
  
  var obj = {prop1: 'str', prop2: 3};
  MyFunc(obj); // ok
  
  var obj2 = {prop1: 'str'};
  MyFunc(obj); // error, you are missing prop2
  
  // getObj returns a "any" type but you can cast it to IStackOverFlow. 
  // This is just an example.
  var obj =  getObj();
