TypeScript can't find Slider

TYPESCRIPT - yay.

I’m currently required to use TS in my project but I can’t seem to find any documentation about it.

in node_modules/@types/react-slick there is a definition file which seems to extend React.Component and export Slider

export default Slider;

but Slider isn’t available as a namespace or an interface.

Can anyone offer any insight into getting this working? Thanks!

Another variation to get this to work, after installing @types/react-slick in devDependencies:

in your .d.ts file:

import Slider, { Settings } from 'react-slick';
declare module 'react-slick' {
  export { Slider, Settings };
}

then import normally in your component.

import Slider, {Settings} from 'react-slick';

VS Code Go To Definition will now go correctly to the node_modules index.d.ts.

Did you install @types/react-slick ? (Additional NPM package)
