If these are regular comments, then they won't appear in our d.ts files. But, now we are relying on an external d.ts bundler to produce our final merged, so they need to be present in the "input" d.ts files, meaning they have to be JSDoc comments. These comments only work today because all of our builds load their TS files from scratch, so they see the actual source files and their non-JSDoc comments. The comments also need to be attached to a declaration, not floating, otherwise they won't be used by api-extractor, so move them if needed.
TypeScript
TypeScript is a language for application-scale JavaScript. TypeScript adds optional types to JavaScript that support tools for large-scale JavaScript applications for any browser, for any host, on any OS. TypeScript compiles to readable, standards-based JavaScript. Try it out at the playground, and stay up to date via our blog and Twitter account.
