They introduced new methods with Promise as argument, which is relying on a global Promise which we don't have. Can we use it without typings? Can we write our own typings? Have to fix this asap.

[sebastianhaas]

Possible fix is to put declare type Promise<T> = any; on top of the index.d.ts file for jszip.

Posted question in Gitter channel https://gitter.im/typings/typings

[sebastianhaas]

We almost certainly need to fix this ourselves by contributing some non-global typings to the typingsregistry

[sebastianhaas]

Need to port jziptypings over to the registry.

[sebastianhaas]

Published typings for jszip to https://github.com/sebastianhaas/typed-jszip
PR for registry pending. typings/registry#620

Once it has been accepted, change reference in our typings.json.

@acondolu provided a temporary fix for this in dc4b44a by using https://github.com/sebastianhaas/typed-jszip directly.

Closed for now, #22 still pending.
