There are several reasons to use interfaces in TypeScript:

- they perform better at build-time and in editor

- they have more relaxed rules for recursion

- they can help identify complex types and distinguish them from simpler ones

- they’re guaranteed to be usable to enforce class implementations, whereas only simple types can be used

- they’re much easier to read in type errors
