TypeScript Definitions (d.ts)? Follow
Hey I've just started developing a HTML5 game using WebStorm and I want to use TypeScript as my JavaScript preprocessor.
I've got it all setup so that my TypeScript files have Watchers on them so they'll compile the JavaScript files everytime I save the file (and there are no syntax errors).
However I want to use the EaselJS from the CreateJS library.
How do I go about using this existing JavaScript library through TypeScript in WebStorm?
I read somewhere you need to use TypeScript definition files, I found the one for EaselJS here.
How do I go about using it in my WebStorm project?
Thanks in advance,
I <3 WebStorm :D

Hello!
just put these .d.ts files into your project folder - they will be available both to WebStorm typescript parser and ts compiler configured as a file watcher
So this isn't required?
/// <reference path="createjs/soundjs/soundjs.d.ts" />
?
TypeScript parser in WebStorm can do without reference path comments (it will resolve the types). But the compiler still needs them. So, yes - it's required
