I am using VS Code for an application in which I am using Reactjs and TypeScript. I have used
create-react-app-typescript
as a template to set up my project. Now when I run the build task from VS Code, I can see a build folder and the generated js files there as well as the generated source files.
I am wondering if I can see generated .js file under its .ts version in VS Code - like you can see those together in Visual Studio ?

Reset to default 5For anybody who finds this:
There is (now) a built-in setting Explorer > File Nesting
which does exactly this. You can also configure the pattern of nesting under Explorer > File Nesting: Patterns
I'm a VSCode Typescript user. I've never seen that feature is available in VSCode. One thing that I usually do is to hide its javascript files on the sidebar.
{
"files.exclude": {
"**/.git": true,
"**/.DS_Store": true,
"**/*.js": {"when": "$(basename).ts"}
}
}
I had a tsconfig file in my application's folder, in which
"outDir": "build/dist"
was causing generated files to go into build/dist folder. Removing this for tsconfig.json file will place generated files along with original .ts files in VS Code.
