+/**
+ * @fileoverview
+ * While Angular only uses Trusted Types internally for the time being,
+ * references to Trusted Types could leak into our core.d.ts, which would force
+ * anyone compiling against @angular/core to provide the @types/trusted-types
+ * package in their compilation unit.
+ *
+ * Until https://github.com/microsoft/TypeScript/issues/30024 is resolved, we
+ * will keep Angular's public API surface free of references to Trusted Types.
+ * For internal and semi-private APIs that need to reference Trusted Types, the
+ * minimal type definitions for the Trusted Types API provided by this module
+ * should be used instead.
+ *
+ * Adapted from
+ * https://github.com/DefinitelyTyped/DefinitelyTyped/blob/master/types/trusted-types/index.d.ts
+ * but restricted to the API surface used within Angular.
