Preview:```ts
import {forwardRef} from "react"

type FR = typeof forwardRef
// ^?```

As you see, FR is a type which contains a type of a generic function

#

However, I cannot use it in types

#

FR is not generic itself

#

Is there a way to inherit the generic?

You can use instantiation expressions:

type FR<T, P> = typeof forwardRef<T, P>

Omg, I didn't know that. Thanks!

#

However in my task it didn't help 🙂
