Is there any example that implements Fauna.js with TS in context of fetching and creating Documents?

if I need to create a new Document with a custom id or ttl, I can’t use DocumentT<CollectionName> because it also enforces coll and ts leading to a reserved field error during document creation.

How are you creating new documents? This should work:

const response = client.query<Document<User>>(fql`
  User.create({
    id: "1234",
    ttl: Time.now().add(1, "day"),
    name: "Paul",
    email: "paul@me.com",
  })
`)

I made comment in your other question that may be important here:

@ptpaterson

projection turns an FQL Document type into a plain object. It’s not clear if you are actually returning an actual Document for a Session or User. The driver will only deserialize the query results to a Javascript Document instance if the query returns a Document as opposed to a projected object. You can however, create an instance yourself; the constructor is designed to accept a plain object that contains the id, coll and ts fields.

Also, if you want to be able to read the ttl field, then you should add that to your type

type User = {
    name: string;
    email: string;
    ttl: TimeStub;
};
