Problem with Deno + DOM + NPM Package

I get type error with TypeScript when I try to use Deno + DOM in an npm package.

Normally, a Deno package is a standalone Deno package with a deno.json file, without package.json or tsconfig.json. That's the point of using Deno.

However, I have a package with all kinds of code, divided into many subpackages, some runs in browser, some in Deno, some in Node.

Then there could be many type errors

Missing Deno

When Deno VSCode extension disabled, Deno gloabal var is missing.

Create deno.d.ts in root

deno types > deno.d.ts

Missing DOM

If you code contains dom operation, like using document. or KeyboardEvent, adding deno.d.ts will cause DOM and other types to be missing.

This is because the following lines are added to deno.d.ts

/// <reference no-default-lib="true" />
/// <reference lib="esnext" />
/// <reference lib="deno.net" />

Simply remove the first line containing no-default-lib.

Then other libs specified in tsconfig.json will be loaded.

This works for me, but may not be the best solution for other use cases.

Deno and DOM packages should be separated into multiple packages when feasible.
