+## TypeScript Helpers
+
+### InertiaPage
+
+Manually typing your front-end components can be tedious and error-prone. This is where the `InertiaPage` type comes in handy.
+
+If you have a controller similar to the following example:
+
+```typescript
+import type { HttpContextContract } from '@ioc:Adonis/Core/HttpContext';
+import { InertiaPage } from '@ioc:EidelLev/Inertia';
+
+export default class FooController {
+  public async index({ inertia }: HttpContextContract) {
+    return inertia.render('Foo', {
+      bar: 'FooBar',
+    });
+  }
+}
+
+// Export this type to use in your front-end components
+export type FooIndexProps = InertiaPage<FooController['index']>;
+```
+
+You can then use the `FooIndexProps` type in your front-end component and get type safety for your props that will update automatically if you change the controller method response params.
+
+```typescript
+import type FooIndexProps from 'App/Controllers/FooController';
+
+const FooPage = ({ bar }: FooIndexProps) => {
+  return <div>{bar}</div>;
+};
+```
+
