How to get jQuery intellisense in Visual Studio 2019

I am trying to get jQuery intellisense working in Visual Studio.

I am using the latest jQuery version jquery-3.3.1.js and latest Bootstrap v4.3.1. I have tried every solution on Stack Overflow but nothing has yet worked for me.

I tried to reference jquery-3.3.1.intellisense.js but nothing happened. I also tried installing jQuery typed script and then adding jsconfig.json and referencing the jQuery typed script in it but unfortunately again nothing happened.

To be clear, I expect intellisense to work when I type $.

This is what worked for me:

  1. Added a Scripts folder to my solution,

  2. Added a file '_references.js',

  3. Added my reference statements to jQuery (I should upgrade jQuery, huh) in there:

    ///<reference path="jquery-1.10.2.js" />
///<reference path="jquery-1.10.2.intellisense.js" />

  4. Closed/Re-opened my solution and presto:

IntelliSense now showing jQuery usage
