-## Props: One or the Other but not Both
+## Props: One or the other but not both
 
-Use the `in` keyword, function overloading, and union types to make components that take either one or another sets of props, but not both:
+Since TypeScript is a structural type system, _minimum_ property requirements are described rather than _exact_, which makes it a bit more difficult to disallow certain props compared to what you might think. `never` can be used to allow either one or another prop, but not both:
 
 ```tsx
-type Props1 = { foo: string };
-type Props2 = { bar: string };
+type Props1 = { foo: string; bar?: never };
+type Props2 = { bar: string; foo?: never };
 
-function MyComponent(props: Props1 | Props2) {
-  if ("foo" in props) {
-    // props.bar // error
-    return <div>{props.foo}</div>;
-  } else {
-    // props.foo // error
-    return <div>{props.bar}</div>;
+const OneOrTheOther = (props: Props1 | Props2) => {
+  if ("foo" in props && typeof props.foo === "string") {
+    // `props.bar` is of type `undefined`
+    return <>{props.foo}</>;
   }
-}
-const UsageComponent = () => (
-  <div>
-    <MyComponent foo="foo" />
-    <MyComponent bar="bar" />
-    {/* <MyComponent foo="foo" bar="bar"/> // invalid */}
-  </div>
+  // `props.foo` is of type `undefined`
+  return <>{props.bar}</>;
+};
+const Component = () => (
+  <>
+    <OneOrTheOther /> {/* error */}
+    <OneOrTheOther foo="" /> {/* ok */}
+    <OneOrTheOther bar="" /> {/* ok */}
+    <OneOrTheOther foo="" bar="" /> {/* error */}
+  </>
+);
+```

+
+A better alternative might be to use a discriminant prop like this:
+
+```tsx
+type Props1 = { type: "foo"; foo: string };
+type Props2 = { type: "bar"; bar: string };
+
+const OneOrTheOther = (props: Props1 | Props2) => {
+  if (props.type === "foo") {
+    // `props.bar` does not exist
+    return <>{props.foo}</>;
+  }
+  // `props.foo` does not exist
+  return <>{props.bar}</>;
+};
+const Component = () => (
+  <>
+    <OneOrTheOther type="foo" /> {/* error */}
+    <OneOrTheOther type="foo" foo="" /> {/* ok */}
+    <OneOrTheOther type="foo" bar="" /> {/* error */}
+    <OneOrTheOther type="foo" foo="" bar="" /> {/* error */}
+    <OneOrTheOther type="bar" /> {/* error */}
+    <OneOrTheOther type="bar" foo="" /> {/* error */}
+    <OneOrTheOther type="bar" bar="" /> {/* ok */}
+    <OneOrTheOther type="bar" foo="" bar="" /> {/* error */}
+  </>
 );
 ```
