I suggest we keep the external API using functions and keep classes an implementation detail. Classes have a predetermined shape and cannot be overloaded, so something like #50 would have to be separated to ReadableStore and WritableStore.

An alternative is to have a static method attached to the class to handle overloads.

abstract class Store<T> {
  abstract value: T;

  static from<T>(readable: Readable<T>): Readonly<Store<T>>

  static from<T>(writable: Writable<T>): Store<T>

  static from<T>(store: Readable<T> | Writable<T>): Store<T> {
    if (isWritable(store)) {
      return new WritableStore(store);
    }
    return new ReadableStore(store);
  }
}

class ReadableStore<T> extends Store<T> { ... }

class WritableStore<T> extends Store<T> { ... }
