Help with typescript module resolution

This is a help request.

I’m working on project where I’m using Typescript for the entire app (not just the front end). When I attempt import { app } from 'electron', typescript claims not to find the electron module, which is not installed by the electron-forge init command. I can probably fix this by pointing “paths” under “compilerOptions” in my tsconfig file to another module in my node_modules folder, but I can’t find the correct one.

I would appreciate some help.

It’s not a bug, the reason that it’s not being hoisted is that both electron-prebuilt-compile and electron both define a binary electron. We probably need to copy electron.d.ts

Just installed and tried yarn… It just worked.
