type TLogLevelKeys = keyof typeof LogLevel;
type TLogLevel = typeof LogLevel[TLogLevelKeys];

const log = (message: string, level: TLogLevel = LogLevel.DEBUG) => console.log(`${LogLevel[level]}: ${message}`);

log("DEBUG value from const", LogLevel.DEBUG);

enum ELogLevel {
  DEBUG = "DEBUG",
  INFO = "INFO",
  WARNING = "WARNING",
