Using TypeScript and Styled Components `as` prop

I have a styled button:



import Link from 'react-router-dom'
import styled from 'styled-components'

const Button = styled(Link)`
display: block;
border: 1px solid white;
padding: 5px;
`


I can use it as a Link:



<Button to='/' />


But sometimes I would like to use it as an a:



<Button as='a' href='/' />


But in a second case TypeScript is complaining with:



Type ' children: string; as: string; href: string; ' is not assignable to type 'Readonly<ThemedOuterStyledProps<WithOptionalTheme<LinkProps, any>, any>>'.
Property 'to' is missing in type ' children: string; as: string; href: string; '.


"as" polymorphic prop
