Visual Studio code intellisense support for jest
See original GitHub issueThe solution is simple, but it’s ideal to be included into boilerplate.
Solution: Create a jsconfig.json file in the root of your workspace to specifically include jest:
{
"typeAcquisition": {
"include": [
"jest"
]
}
}

Wouldn’t
yarn add @types/jest --dev
suffice?This “just works” for me, especially when having
@types/jest
in devDependencies.I’m not sure adding a section just for VSCode with the OP suggestion is worthwhile since no other IDEs support it.
