Resolution

Most of the resolution needs can be handled with settings in the tsconfig.json file. https://github.com/Microsoft/TypeScript/issues/9834

Ember-cli integration

The type mappings are done through baseUrl and paths in the tsconfig.json. For integration with the IDE the baseUrl can be just '.' which translates to the current folder. However for broccoli plugins this does not work, an absolute path is needed. The plugin takes care of that transformation.

Also noEmit is set to true in the basic tsconfig.json file to reduce user errors where the user or IDE runs tsc and generates .js and .map files. The plugin removes noEmit when using the configuration file during actual brocoli pipeline.
