Resolving TypeScript Errors in Recursive Schema Definition with Branded Types

import * as S from "@effect/schema/Schema";

const Branded = S.String.pipe(S.brand("Branded"));
type Branded = typeof Branded.Type;

const fields = { id: Branded }

interface Entry extends S.Struct.Type<typeof fields> {
    readonly children: ReadonlyArray<UnionItem>
}

export const Entry = S.Struct({
    ...fields,
    children: S.Array(S.suspend((): S.Schema<UnionItem> => UnionItem)),
});

type UnionItem = Entry | number;
const UnionItem = S.Union(Entry, S.Number);
