I have a very simple question. How do I do the equivalent of this:

Yesterday I wrote up a solution to this exact issue on my blog - http://edcourtenay.co.uk/musings-of-an-idiot/2014/11/26/typescript-requirejs-and-jquery:

TL;DR - create a config file config.ts that looks something like:

requirejs.config({
    paths: {
        "jquery": "Scripts/jquery-2.1.1"
    }
});

require(["app"]);

and ensure your RequireJS entry point points to the new config file:

You can now use the $ namespace from within your TypeScript files by simply using

import $ = require("jquery")

Hope this helps
