Do any of you face this problem where vscode always takes you to the type definition of a function and not the implementation.
For example, I right click on the react setState function as below,
And VS code shows me the typescript file.
How do I look at the implementation and not the type definition of a function?

Reset to default 5This is a limitation of VS Code's intellisense. We don't attempt to parse js from inside node_modules for IntelliSense, so we have no way of mapping back to the original source code. Instead we rely on *.d.ts to provide definitions.
