Typescript path in VS code

Question

I can't get typescript paths to work for VS Code in an Angular cli project.

If you look at https://github.com/gatimus/multiple-test/blob/master/src/app1/app/app.module.ts#L3 throws

[ts] Cannot find module 'shared/shared.module',

even though path is set in tsconfig.app.json and settings.json has the line

"typescript.tsdk": "node_modules/typescript/lib/"

Update: It seems the apps run but VS Code can't find the module. I have version 1.16.1

Answer 1

Renaming tsconfig.app.json to tsconfig.json and updating .angular-cli.json seems to work.

I am curious though, if the tsconfig file wasn't configurable in angular cli, how would you tell VS Code to use tsconfig.app.json?
