Summary from the TLDR Web Dev newsletter

Using types in programming is similar to color-coding wires in an electrical system. Types act as labels, making it easier to understand the flow of data in code and preventing mismatches. They also provide automatic error checking and make it simpler to identify and fix issues, so they should always be used in complex codebases.
