Cool topic, but I haven't done it myself either as most explanations are pretty big-brained in the sense that its a little hard for a beginner to figure out sometimes. However, the power of literate programming is super cool, so here's a few links I found that you can go through that might help you out: https://www.reddit.com/r/emacs/comments/a3rlvk/orgmode_literate_programming_and_emacs/ https://emacs-lsp.github.io/lsp-mode/manual-language-docs/lsp-org/ https://blog.thomasheartman.com/posts/configuring-emacs-with-org-mode-and-literate-programming http://cachestocaches.com/2018/6/org-literate-programming/ Hope it helps, Sam On Sat, Nov 6, 2021, at 6:33 AM, Tim Cross wrote: > > Greg Minshall writes: > > > hi. > > > > i'm wondering if anyone programming in typescript might have run into, > > and solved, this "problem", of tangling into a subdirectory, and tide > > [1] not being able to resolve "relative" imports. > > > > i have a file in path /a/b/foo.org. it includes various source blocks, > > and they do things like `:tangle c/d/bar.ts`. another source block, > > tangled into in c/d/fubar.ts, say, does something like: > > ---- > > import Bar from "./bar" > > ---- > > > > when i open an Org Src edit buffer from fubar.ts's source block, with > > tide mode [1] enabled, i get a complaint > > ---- > > Cannot find module './bar' or its corresponding type declarations.
