  • VSCode Version: 1.2.1
  • OS Version: Windows 8.1

Some projects I work on use .es6 extension for JavaScript files that import/export using ES6 module syntax.

While webstorm and webpack seem to have no issues with this setup, VSCode gives a red squiggly saying [js] Cannot find module './filename.es6'.

Is there some way to get VS Code to find modules imported that do not have a .js extension? We would like to use .jsx in a similar fashion.

I have this for a .jsconfig:

    {
        "compilerOptions": {
            "target": "ES6",
            "module": "commonjs"
        },
        "files": [
            "**/*.jsx",
            "**/*.es6",
            "**/*.js"
        ]
    }

...and tried adding .es6 under user settings for VSCode, but suspect I did it wrong or that doesn't solve the issue.
