This Simple USB Type C breakout is kinda interesting, it looks similar to this USB Type C SMT Inline Breakout Board, but it's an 'inline' style with pads for soldering to the common USB 1.1/2.0 connections. Adafruit see this lil breakout used often in custom keyboards, it's glued or wedged into the enclosure.

Unlike Adafruit's breakout, it doesn't break out all the pads - it just gives you the classic 4 USB pins that would let you connect to a USB-capable chip or microcontroller. It does not have any resistors to set direction/current - but despite that it seems to work just fine when Adafruit used it to connect to Adafruit's computer. It may not work with power supplies or ports that require CC resistors for PD negotiation.

For more details, Adafruit like this Introduction to USB C app note.
