What is the difference between interface and type in TypeScript and when to use which?

Hi everyone! I just started learning TypeScript and came across two ways to describe object structures: `interface` and `type`. At first, I thought they were the same, but then I noticed they behave differently in some situations. Here's an example. I can write it using `interface`: ```typescript interface User { name: string; age: number; } ``` Or using `type`: ```typescript type User = { name: string; age: number; }; ``` Both options work the same when I create an object: ```typescript const user: User = { name: 'Alex', age: 30 }; ``` But then I tried to merge two types. With `interface`, I can simply write a second interface with the same name, and they will merge: ```typescript interface User { email: string; } // Now User has name,
