Feature

• What is the current behavior?

Adding a custom my-lib/src/typings.d.ts is ignored during sequence !build:webpack

Looks like it's a configuration issue inside tsconfig.package.json. Might create a PR if I could understand better the webpack generation logic.

Thanks

The recent commit should fix some issues with it however you will have to import it manually with the triple slash typescript directive.

Auto loading d.ts files might crete serious issues with duplications so I don't suggest doing so.

Also, remember that if you are planning on using that custom typings as public API you will need to find a different approach and expose those types not as augmented module but as a regular ts module.
