Understanding Branded Types: A Simple Guide
I really like this explanation of branded (opaque types) from here:
https://prosopo.io/articles/typescript-branding/
The effect docs (https://effect.website/docs/guides/style/branded-types) are to complex to understand this simple but important concept. Maybe it can be updated.

Explore the concept of branded types in TypeScript using the Brand module. Understand the "data-last" and "data-first" variants, and learn to create branded types with runtime validation (refined) and without checks (nominal). Discover how to use and combine branded types to enforce type safety in your code.
