How to exclude node_module folder from build in visual studio 2015 update 3

Question

I'm trying to use Visual Studio as my IDE for developing an ASP.NET MVC 5 SPA with Angular 2. The problem raises when I try to build the project. It gives me many errors inside *.d.ts files.

I created the project using angular-cli the command : ng new project-name

and here is what the solution explorer looks like :

How do I get rid of these errors? I haven't had any problems with using angular 2 in Visual Studio Code

Update :

According to your answers I added the following in the tsconfig.json file, but it seems it doesn't work

{
  "compileOnSave": false,
  "compilerOptions": {
    "outDir": "./dist/out-tsc",
    "sourceMap": true,
    "declaration": false,
    "moduleResolution": "node",
    "emitDecoratorMetadata": true,
    "experimentalDecorators": true,
    "lib": [
      "es2016"
    ]
  },
  "exclude": [
    "./node_modules",
    "**/*.spec.ts"
  ]
}

Answer 1

Make sure you're using the latest Typescript tools for your version of Visual Studio. A colleague of mine had a similar problem, if you've already excluded the node_modules folder in your tsconfig this may be the issue.

{
    "compilerOptions": {
        "module": "system",
        "noImplicitAny": true,
        "removeComments": true,
        "preserveConstEnums": true,
        "outFile": "../../built/local/tsc.js",
        "sourceMap": true
    },
    "include": [
        "src/**/*"
    ],
    "exclude": [
        "node_modules",
        "**/*.spec.ts"
    ]
}
