- * Custom Type Definitions
- * When including 3rd party modules you also need to include the type definition for the module
- * if they don't provide one within the module. You can try to install it with typings
-typings install node --save
- * If you can't find the type definition in the registry we can make an ambient definition in
- * this file for now. For example
-declare module "my-module" {
-  export function doesSomething(value: string): string;
-}
- *
- * If you're prototying and you will fix the types later you can also declare it as type any
- *
-declare var assert: any;
- *
- * If you're importing a module that uses Node.js modules which are CommonJS you need to import as
- *
-import * as _ from 'lodash'
- * You can include your type definitions in this file until you create one for the typings registry
- * see https://github.com/typings/registry
- *
