The following is the list of modifications made to change the JS project to a TS Project:

• Moved original README.md to README-JS.md and added this README.md and CONVERSION.md
• Installed TypeScript typings for angular and related libs tsd install angular jquery jasmine karma-jasmine angular-mocks angular-protractor selenium-webdriver --save
• Added 2 tsconfig.json files, one for app and another for e2e-tests. Two files are needed because of different typings for each.
• Renamed the .js files to .ts.
• As a sample : Converted controller View1 and View2 functions to classes and added a type annotation to use these from tests in a type checked way.
• Minor modifications of typings needed because of conflict in jquery vs. protractor : DefinitelyTyped/DefinitelyTyped#2734.
  • Remove $ from jquery.d.ts in e2e-tests.
  • Remove protractor def from app.

You will notice that stuff like angular, mocks etc will light up with intellisence and you will get errors if you try to misuse these.
