title: Unable to find typings.d.ts and declare modules in angular 2 typescript app
body: <p>I am new to Typescript and Angular 2. I need to install an npm dependency and use it in my angular 2 app.</p>
  
  <p>The dependency is <a href="https://www.npmjs.com/package/ng2-stomp-service" rel="noreferrer">https://www.npmjs.com/package/ng2-stomp-service</a></p>
  
  <p>I have installed the necessary packages, but I need to add the following to my <code>typings.d.ts</code> file</p>
  
  <pre><code>declare module 'stompjs';
  declare module 'sockjs-client';
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I am unable to find the <code>typings.d.ts</code> file in my project.</p>
  
  <p>I have tried the following so far,</p>
  
  <pre><code>npm install typings --global
  npm install @types/stompjs
  npm isntall @types/sockjs-client
  typings install dt~stompjs --save
  typings install dt~sockjs-client --save
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I have <code>typings.json</code> file with contents,</p>
  
  <pre><code>{
    "dependencies": {
      "sockjs-client": "registry:dt/sockjs-client#1.0.3+20160727010356",
      "stompjs": "registry:dt/stompjs#2.3.0+20161111105645"
    }
  }
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>When I run my angular 2 app with <code>npm start</code> it throws error as follows</p>
  
  <pre><code>ERROR in D:/Userfiles/subramanians/projects/hand-cricket/node_modules/ng2-stomp-service/dist/stomp.service.ts (27,2): Member 'config' implicitly has an 'any' type.

  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I am not sure what is causing the issue, I am guessing it is because I have not declared the modules in <code>typings.d.ts</code></p>
  
  <p>Please advise. Thank you.</p>
