When to Use an Abstract Class vs. an Interface? #SHORTS

It's critical to know when to use an interface vs. an abstract class to prevent creating the wrong abstractions down the road.

Abstractions let us define the properties and behaviours that future objects need to conform to. They help us:
1. Decouple components
2. Create a contract

Both of these capabilities are super important for testing.

Use interfaces by default but use abstract classes if you also need to define some common behavior for subclasses.

Abstract class is like a super class but with the ability to define just the method signature and not have to provide the default implementation if you don't want to.

Thanks,
I recently knew that in typescript a abstract class can be implmented instead of being extended

Thank you for explaining absolutely nothing
