Feathers writing in typescript fails to boot on configuration

[koenverburg]

Where it fails

I'm writing feathers in typescript but it fails on configuration so it won't boot.
Also, I can't find any information about writing feathers in typescript or es6 so I think I'm on my own here. I just gonna follow the steps that I have for Express.

Expected behavior

That the app boots

Actual behavior

It fails to boot

System configuration

just a normal laptop

Not sure if this has something to do with TypeScript? It looks like app.configure() did not get passed a function. Do you have a full stack trace?

Never mind, had to create the database with Knex before I boot feathers.
