Angular js Intellisense Not Working In VS 2015 Controller

I am creating my first project in express for web 2015. I created a sample app.html file and here is the code. Intellisense is working properly. enter image description here

Now I created another js file in controller folder. The intellisense doesn't work here. enter image description here

I have 2 questions:

1) Is it supposed to work here ?

2) if yes, why its not working for me ?

I followed the previous answer and did following steps on top of it :

Added a reference.js file in scripts folder (same lever where angular exists) and intellisense is working now. This is the content of reference file:

/// <autosync enabled="true" />
/// <reference path="../controllers/sportsStore.js" />
/// <reference path="../ngmodules/angular-resource.js" />
/// <reference path="../ngmodules/angular-route.js" />
/// <reference path="ai.0.15.0-build58334.min.js" />
/// <reference path="angular.js" />
/// <reference path="angular-mocks.js" />

1) Is it supposed to work here ?

Ans: No. Not out of the box, but that can be fixed (see #2)

2) if yes, why its not working for me ?

Ans: You need to install the AngularJS extension for Visual Studio that John Bledsoe, a member of the Visual Studio community, created.

To do this, download the angular.intellisense.js file and place it in the Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 12.0\JavaScript\References folder on your PC.

This extension works the same with any project that uses JavaScript, including Apache Cordova, ASP.NET, LightSwitch, and Windows Store apps, among others.
