About typescript types and goverment inspection of cakes in a cafes
- Without export: Like giving someone a cake but keeping the recipe secret - they can eat it but don't know what's in it
- With export: Like giving someone a cake with the recipe - they know exactly what ingredients (properties) to expect
The export keyword tells TypeScript: "This interface can be used by other files too, not just this one file."

You're absolutely right! In real life, you don't need the recipe - you just eat the cake.
But TypeScript is like a very strict food inspector who works for the government. When you serve food (return data) from your cafe (class.service.ts) to another cafe (StudentClassesManagerService), the inspector says:
"I need to see the official recipe (interface) to make sure this food is safe and follows health regulations!"
Even though both cafes can see and taste the cake, the inspector (TypeScript compiler) won't allow the transaction unless the recipe is officially documented and shared between establishments.
