This may be an upstream TypeScript issue. There's a related and closed issue on the TS repo about that. The solution of adding the path with the dot in front doesn't work though in combination with rootDirs it seems. As a workaround you can specify the path like this, too: import('../../(as often as needed)/.svelte-kit/types/src/routes/path/to/your/file/as/written/in/your/src/routes/folder/$types')

Could [x+2e]well-known be a possible workaround now with the new path escaping thing https://kit.svelte.dev/docs/advanced-routing#encoding ?

[dummdidumm]

yes, that indeed works (type-wise)

[Rich-Harris]

The linked issue says you can work around it by explicitly adding dot-prefixed directories to the include array. We control that array since it lives in the extended config — maybe we can make this work that way?

The alternative is probably to document the [x+2e]well-known workaround, since I don't expect a resolution from TypeScript itself.

I tried that out but it doesn't seem to work in combination with rootdirs
