How to specify a specific string in a TypeScript interface (literal type)

Hi everyone! I just started learning TypeScript and ran into a problem. I need to create an interface for an object that has a `status` field. This field should accept strictly defined values, for example: `"active"`, `"inactive"` or `"pending"`. If you try to assign any other string, a compilation error should occur.\n\nI tried doing this:\n\n```typescript\ninterface UserStatus {\n status: string;\n}\n```\n\nBut this doesn't work because `string` allows any strings. I want TS to check that the value of the `status` field is one of three possible strings.\n\nI tried using `enum`, but I was told it can be done simpler — using literal types. How do I properly describe such an interface? And is it possible to make the IDE suggest possible options while typing?
