Intellisense not working with imports in Visual Studio Code

Question

When using javascript (es2015) imports the Intellisense seems to be broken.

When I am working in the same file, VSC autosuggests the methods from the object with the correct JSDoc information.

However, when importing the Class in another file, the Intellisense seems to be completely broken ( david.david, wtf? ).

Do I need to adjust any settings in Visual Studio Code to get this working? I tried adjusted my jsconfig file to es2015 imports and es6 as but that didn't work.

My jsconfig.json:

{
    "compilerOptions": {
        "module": "es6"
    }
}

Answer 1

Because you are using export without default you need to enable allowSyntheticDefaultImports

{
    "compilerOptions": {
        "target": "es6",
        "allowSyntheticDefaultImports": true
    }
}

The same occurs with

import fs from 'fs';
import axios from 'axios';

And others.
