How to add custom typings in TypeScript?
To add custom typings in TypeScript, we can add declare
statements into .d.ts
files into our project.
For instance, we write
declare module "some-js-lib" {
export function hello(world: string): void;
}
to add typings for the some-js-lib
module.
We add the hello
function declaration into it so that the TypeScript compiler knows that the hello
function is available in some-js-lib
.
