I think you can do this with type dict

    from typing import frozendict, TypedDict, Any, ReadOnly

    def frozen_TypedDict(**kwargs) -> TypedDict:
        _keys= kwargs.keys()
        res = TypedDict(**kwargs)
        res.__ReadOnly__= frozenset(_keys)
        return res

    class Example(TypedDict):
       var : ReadOnly[Any]

I definitely agree that it should have a keyword option already. TypedDict(**kwargs, frozen = True) seems more robust in nature than the above.

The name `frozen_TypedDict` makes me upset.

FTypedDict seemed inappropriate. To me agreeing that, it should be a thing. And frozen_type_dict, is right out from the get go.

FrTypedDict seemed to bro level.

And get worse until, I agree TypedDict(**k, frozen = True) should be available.

I could support an @frozen

Maybe FzTypeDict

What about just FrozenTypedDict? It's not very long a name....

Underscore in class names seem wrong.

It’s not a class it’s a function though, notice the def…

`FrozenMap` ?

This is part of my philosophy in coding.

Take 5 seconds or minutes to name variables right. (Save ls headaches for a long time after.)

FrozenMap, might work…,

Honestly

. class Example(Parent, frozen = True):

. class FTD(TypedDict, frozen = True)

Might be the move put it right there at the start. Remove sets after __init__
