Describe the bug
When using SvelteKit with TypeScript declaration maps enabled, the generated .d.ts files for .svelte components correctly include a .d.ts.map file.
However, IDEs like VSCode do not follow the .d.ts.map back to the original .svelte source, even though the map exists and points to the right file.
This breaks TypeScript navigation (“Go to definition”) and makes debugging or inspection of Svelte component types harder.
Reproduction
Open this minimal reproduction:
👉 StackBlitz – SvelteKit declarationMap issue reproduction
Build the Svelte component to generate .d.ts and .d.ts.map.
In an editor (e.g. VSCode), Ctrl/Cmd + click on the imported component.
