How to disable JavaScript browser API suggestions in Intellisense

Question

How does one disable web API suggestions in VSCode? Eg, if I type "id" I get a bunch of IndexDB suggestions. I'd like to disable this if possible.

Thanks!

Yes VS Code includes DOM completions in javascript by default. To disable this, create a jsconfig.json at the root of your project and set "lib" to "es6":

{
    "compilerOptions": {
        "target": "ES6",
        "lib": ["es6"]
    },
    "exclude": [
        "node_modules",
        "**/node_modules/*"
    ]
}

This tells VS Code's intellsenese to only include the standard es6 library typings when providing intellisense.
