Should ignore node_modules @types declaration files

[jschuur]

Once I added new types via @types (AKA DefinitelyTyped) modules, I started to see all sorts of info entries under the VS Code Problems tab trying to give me tips on TypeScript features that I hadn't marked as learned yet:

Doesn't seem like something you'd want to see by default.

I also couldn't get rid of these via exclude or skipLibCheck.

Agreed, would be super useful to have an option to ignore files.

I went into the settings for now and did 'Hide All Tips' (and restarted VS Code) to clean up the Problems tab.

It's my first proper TypeScript project, I didn't want that big number there all the time ;)

Same here if I ctrl+click to see a type myself. Then the extension parses the .d.ts file and shows me all kinds of info which would be cool if it would go away when I close the .d.ts file but instead, it freezes things. TS stops working completely if I'm using volar in a vue project. Things get slow when using regular TS extension in a React project. But in both cases the problems tab stays full after closing the d.ts file.

Maybe a setting to enable or disable for node_modules ?
