Support for authoring TypeScript targeted for Deno

[zeusdeux]

Given that Deno v1 is out which supports typescript natively, is there a plan to add support for the way things are imported in a typescript file meant for the Deno runtime? (I.e., file extension for for imports and http imports)

Tide depends on tsserver for all editor functionalities. The feature request should be made to typescript repo

[zeusdeux]

I believe the version of tsserver internal to deno supports it. That’s what the vscode deno plugin uses. Same could be leveraged here right?

[zeusdeux]

Wait, nope I’m wrong. It uses the typescript-deno-plugin to power autocomplete, etc.

[ananthakumaran]

Could you install the plugin and add it in the tsconfig file and check if it works?

Nice work!

To make it more discoverable for regular users, maybe you could open a PR for our readme here, add a Deno-section and make that link to the official docs you talk about?
