Getting Error - Cannot find name 'angular'

Question

I\'m starting writing AngularJS app using TypeScript. I have this simple module command:

(() => {
    angular
        .module(\'app\', []);
})();
<

In tsconfig.json file ensure your "fileGlobs" points to both:-

1. The TypeScript Definitions you installed with tsd &
2. Your src .ts files

"filesGlob": [
  "./typings/**/*.ts",
  "./src/client/**/*.ts"
]

This will ensure you have tooling for the libraries you have installed (with tsd) without having to declare any variables. For example, if you tsd install angularjs --save, you can work angular in your src/../*.ts files with all the goody tooling.

Hope this helps. Good Luck.
