How is the type of the onclick event ?

Hello I have a question about the on-click method of the button, the event doesn't have a type, the type is something like this, is that the real type? it should be one type only for the event
const handleClick = (event: MouseEvent & {
target: Element;
currentTarget: HTMLButtonElement;
}) =>
{
handleRipple(event);

if(onclick)
{
onclick();
}
};

return (
<button
onclick={handleClick}
>
{children}
</button>
);
const handleClick = (event: MouseEvent & {
target: Element;
currentTarget: HTMLButtonElement;
}) =>
{
handleRipple(event);

if(onclick)
{
onclick();
}
};

return (
<button
onclick={handleClick}
>
{children}
</button>
);

You can also use JSX.EventHandlerUnion< MouseEvent, HTMLButtonElement>

typically target or currentTarget is what you want. I'm typing my handles as
function myHandler(e: { currentTarget: HTMLInputElement }) {
console.log(e.currentTarget.value)
}
function myHandler(e: { currentTarget: HTMLInputElement }) {
console.log(e.currentTarget.value)
}

From my exploration of the types library, I didn't find any. I found that the final type of the handler or the event is put together using various helper types in the types lib, but none of them are specifically the type of the event If you do find one, please let me know

It might be the other way around, JSX.EventHandlerUnion<HTMLButtonElement, MouseEvent> You use it like this. e will be typed properly then
const handler: JSX.EventHandlerUnion<HTMLButtonElement, MouseEvent> = (e) =>{}
const handler: JSX.EventHandlerUnion<HTMLButtonElement, MouseEvent> = (e) =>{}
