There's no suggestion for window.requestIdleCallback (rIC) only for window.requestAnimationFrame (rAF).

We don't include experimental APIs in lib.d.ts

@RyanCavanaugh 😢

Posting this here for people who want to copy/paste into their projects:

type RequestIdleCallbackHandle = any;
type RequestIdleCallbackOptions = {
  timeout: number;
};
type RequestIdleCallbackDeadline = {
  readonly didTimeout: boolean;
  timeRemaining: (() => number);
};

declare global {
  interface Window {
    requestIdleCallback: ((
      callback: ((deadline: RequestIdleCallbackDeadline) => void),
      opts?: RequestIdleCallbackOptions,
    ) => RequestIdleCallbackHandle);
    cancelIdleCallback: ((handle: RequestIdleCallbackHandle) => void);
  }
}
