### `Union` in Python 3.10 { #union-in-python-3-10 }

```

////

#### Using `Union` or `Optional` { #using-union-or-optional }

If you are using a Python version below 3.10, here's a tip from my very **subjective** point of view:

* 🚨 Avoid using `Optional[SomeType]`
* Instead ✨ **use `Union[SomeType, None]`** ✨.

```

////

#### Uso de `Union` u `Optional` { #using-union-or-optional }

Si estás usando una versión de Python inferior a 3.10, aquí tienes un consejo desde mi punto de vista muy **subjetivo**:

* 🚨 Evita usar `Optional[SomeType]`
* En su lugar ✨ **usa `Union[SomeType, None]`** ✨.

### `Union` en Python 3.10 { #union-in-python-3-10 }

/// note | Hinweis

Wenn Sie eine <a href="https://docs.pydantic.dev/latest/concepts/types/#unions" class="external-link" target="_blank">`Union`</a> definieren, listen Sie den spezifischeren Typ zuerst auf, gefolgt vom weniger spezifischen Typ. Im Beispiel unten steht `PlaneItem` vor `CarItem` in `Union[PlaneItem, CarItem]`.
