It does so by applying bitwise operations on tuples of length 8 (1 byte) and leverages TypeScript conditional type inference to give the result. This project was written as a exercise in TypeScript and is offered as is for anyone who may find it of use.
Requires TypeScript 4.1.2 and above. Example link here.
