Hey all!
This is a small pr that, it seems to me, slightly improves the typing in Cypress when using aliases.
This is a move away from type assertion to a slightly more formal system.
This can help developers immediately see the format for working with aliases in their projects.
I was inspired by this cypress-io/cypress#8762 (comment).
This is how I made it work in my application.

I moved all the aliases into a separate file. If you think it's a good idea, I could put these types in a separate place too.
Thanks :)
