This patch:
- introduces non-exported but used in api/impl struct types (e.g. Point);
- makes all client classes implement respective public api interface.
Pros:
- Typescript is now responsible for type checking.
We can remove our doclint checker (not removed yet).
- Electron and Android types can be defined in the same way
(this is not implemented yet).
- We can move most of the type structs like Point to the public api
and make some of them available.
Cons:
- Any cons?
Currently in our API `?` means null, but sometimes it means optional. Linting optional/nulls with this patch is required for #1166 to land nicely.
Previously, return types were not being linted in `api.md`. This is fixed, along with many broken return types.
This patch considers `?` to mean nullable, and has some heuristics to determine optionality. I believe this to be the minimal patch needed to unblock #1166. After it lands, we can consider changing the api docs to hopefully remove some heuristics and strangeness.
