How do I create a jQuery UI Widget using TypeScript

Help. I'm new to java script so thought I'd try using TypeScript to make my life a little easier.... but I cannot figure out where to start when trying to create a jquery UI Widget using TypeScript.

I've created UI Widgets in java script before and know that at its most basic I'm aiming for;

$.widget( "nmk.progressbar", {
  _create: function() {
    var progress = this.options.value + "%";
    this.element.addClass("progressbar").text( progress );
  }
});

(From the jQuery UI Widget Factory tutorial)

Is it even possible to create a jquery UI Widget using TypeScript?

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

You should just need to reference the jqueryui.d.ts file from DefinitelyTyped to get type information.
