Types seem to be missing

[gildebrand]

I'm using chatkit-client-js together with Angular 5 and TypeScript. It seems like the type hints, which worked in 0.7.5, has stopped working in 0.7.9. Now my IDE (WebStorm) gives me read warnings everywhere. I guess that creating a @types package for the types would be a viable solution, but I think it would be even better if the type hints was included in the package to begin with!

I'm surprised the hints worked in 0.7.5 since the SDK hasn't had types since 0.6.X! Regardless, we should definitely provide type definitions, watch this space :)

I just figured that the type hints didn't work, it just didn't complain as much for some reason before upgrading to 0.7.9, but that's probably because of some project settings rather than having anything to do with this project. Looking forward to type hints 😄

Hey! Is this something that is likely to make it into the upcoming versions? 😄

[teminer]

@gildebrand yes! But not sure exactly when yet, as I mentioned in the other issue we need to focus on improving reliability and scalability first.

Most pusher repos are written with TypeScript, however, this one is in ES6. Why did you choose to do that?

Any movement on this?

Big +1 on adding types 🙏

@callum-oakley I'd like to write some types for this project. Should I fork master or the v5 branch?
