What is the betterAuth({}) type?

Hi community,

const auth = betterAuth({
  //database: ...
});

const auth = betterAuth({
  //database: ...
});

const auth = betterAuth({
  //database: ...
});

const auth = betterAuth({
  //database: ...
});

Let's say we need to propagate our auth const, send through some context, whatever. How can we actually define the type returned by

betterAuth({})

betterAuth({})

betterAuth({})

betterAuth({})?

better auth returns a generic, so it doesn't have consistent type. But you can import AuthAuth from

better-auth

better-auth

as a general type just don't cast the auth instance to it.
