I'd use typedef if C# had one as powerful as C++'s. Using just doesn't cut it.
in the meantime it's VAR ALL DAY LONG.
Haters gonna hate.

Even VS 2019 asks to create a strongly type variable rather than a var in a lot of cases. So yes, take your VAR and shove... (SMACK)

i will take hostages if i must in order to avoid typing long as days generic and tuple declarations.
you have my list of demands. it is simply. I require typedef.
otherwise, VAR VAR VAR!!! =D

and the minute i take coding advice from Microsoft's Clippy, just go ahead and shoot me in the face. With a .45. I don't deserve an open casket.

Ah Clippy, despised even more than VB. I consider siri, cortana and all their ilk the bastard children of Clippy.

visual studio's nagging reminds me of it.

That's an eloquent way to put it, and I cannot explain why that made me think of the "Chucky" movies

Var is for programmers with a lack of a sense of commitment.

what's wrong / not good enough with (at the top of the file):
using IntList = System.Collections.Generic.List<int>;
|
|
|
|

For simple things it may work, and I use that.
But now try to make a Dictionary of those the same way.

Mm...
do you mean while this work...
using IntList = System.Collections.Generic.List<int>;
using DictIntList = System.Collections.Generic.Dictionary<string, System.Collections.Generic.List<int>>;
this short cut is sadly incorrect 
using IntList = System.Collections.Generic.List<int>;
using DictIntList = System.Collections.Generic.Dictionary<string, IntList>;
However either way you can still write:
var d = new DictIntList();
var l1 = new IntList();
d["doo"] = l1;

I always had this idea one day to start to add some F# utility library to my home utility libraries....
But this project has still gone nowhere in a long time :/

Annoyingly, it works if you put the using statements in different scopes:
using IntList = System.Collections.Generic.List<int>;
namespace TestIt
{
using DictIntList = System.Collections.Generic.Dictionary<string, IntList>;

doesn't work in the real world.
Most of the time I need more than static typedefing. I will need to fill in a T parameter somewhere.
If using let you do like - using Fat<t> = IDictionary<t,fa<t>>; then i would use var less.

i have to agree. for me i think it makes code clearer than the alternative in a lot of cases where generics are involved. The screen gets to cluttered with angle brackets otherwise. i hate it.

Nothing, but it may impose a task on some code-readers/user to consult your pre-index if you stray from the path of mnemonic.

well... the OP was asking for typedef. it is what it is! 
Personally I like var well enough!
