Typescript path in VS code

Question

I can't get typescript paths to work for VS Code in an Angular cli project.

If you look at https://github.com/gatimus/multiple-test/blob/master/src/app1/app/app.module.ts#L3 throws

[ts] Cannot find module 'shared/shared.module',

even though path is set in tsconfig.app.json and settings.json has the line

"typescript.tsdk": "node_modules/typescript/lib/"

Update: It seems the apps run but VS Code can't find the module. I have version 1.16.1

I did git clone, yarn, ng serve. Have no problems running the app. Try to restart your ng serve. — angularconsulting.au

@Kuncevic it seems that app runs but it is vscode that can't find the module, see updated question. — Wilhelmina Lohan

Renaming tsconfig.app.json to tsconfig.json and updating .angular-cli.json seems to work.

I am curious though, if the tsconfig file wasn't configurable in angular cli, how would you tell VS Code to use tsconfig.app.json?

For anyone still struggling with this, I was having this problem in Atom and it was fixed by following the sym link. (cmnd/ctrl click on the module name that throws the error). This seems to suggest that it is an issue with the IDE and not angular.
