title: using slick-carousel with typescript
body: <p>Im new to typescript and im trying to get the a hang on the concept of how modules/packages works in typescript..</p>
  
  <p>I am currently in the need of using slick-carousel to create a simple image slider.</p>
  
  <p>However.. I have managed to install jquery.. but I dont quite get how to get slick to work with typescript.</p>
  
  <p>So far I have used npm typings to install my packages.</p>
  
  <p>So I just ran <code>typings install slick-carousel</code>.. and the definition-file showed up fine..
  however.. the definition-file contains no declaration only interfaces..
  So I cant really "import" slick-carousel into the file where I need to use it (I might be wrong).. so I guess that the package is supposed to extend the already existing jquery import in some why..</p>
  
  <p>However.. If I do this:</p>
  
  <pre><code>import * as $ from 'jquery';
  
  class Splash {
      init() {
          $.slick();
      }
  }
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>then</p>
  
  <pre><code>$.slick();
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>cant be resolved.. </p>
  
  <p>so.. how do you "import" a package that only extends a pre-existing package like jquery?</p>
  
  <p>Thanks in advance!</p>
