Resolve tsconfig baseUrl and paths imports with Parcel
npm install parcel-resolver-ts-base-urlAt the moment Parcel does not support resolving imports using paths and baseUrl properties from tsconfig.json. This is a big issue both when migrating existing projects leveraging these properties and for developers having preference for TypeScript path aliases. This resolver allows you to use the same imports with parcel@^2 as when using tsc.

You can install parcel-resolver-ts-base-url using npm or yarn:
``bash`
npm i --save-dev parcel-resolver-ts-base-urlor
yarn add -D parcel-resolver-ts-base-url
Simply add parcel-resolver-ts-base-url to your .parcelrc:
`json`
{
"extends": "@parcel/config-default",
"resolvers": ["parcel-resolver-ts-base-url", "..."]
}
> At the moment parcel doesn't provide a way to specify tsconfig.json location I know of. parcel-resolver-ts-base-url will look for tsconfig.json recursively from the import location to the project root (.parcelrc location) like Parcel itself does.
