Paths created in tsconfig.json not work

[vuggy17]

Describe the bug
I created path in tsconfig.json, then import module using that path, but compiler tells module not found

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Go to tsconfig.json
2. Add baseUrl and path
3. Go to app.module
4. Import that module

Expected behavior
Module imported using custom path

Screenshots

@vuggy17 Maybe you should try

    "paths": {
      "@shared/*": ["app/shared/*"],
    }

@maximegris -- just in case you might have an idea about this (only look into this if you have interest and time).

I tried in my project, and VS Code correctly recognizes the paths, but when I run npm start it fails:

whyboris/Video-Hub-App#752 <-- code change

tsconfig.json change:
https://github.com/whyboris/Video-Hub-App/pull/752/files#diff-b55cdbef4907b7045f32cc5360d48d262cca5f94062e353089f189f4460039e0R7

The npm start tries to run using tsconfig-serve.json and gives this error:

Cannot find module '@pipes' or its corresponding type declarations.

When I add the paths property to tsconfig-serve.json (I need to add ./ before each path) but I get this error:

The 'import.meta' meta-property is only allowed when the '--module' option is 'es2020', 'es2022', 'esnext', 'system', 'node12', or 'nodenext'.

This is because I use a service worker:

const worker = new Worker(new URL('./tags.worker', import.meta.url), { type: 'module' });

If I add "module": "es2020" (for example) I get this error:

Cannot use import statement outside a module

I suspect I might have to suck it up and have ../../../../../interfaces/ instead of @my/

But in case you instantly know what's going wrong with my project, please let me know 🙇

It's been over 2 years and it still doesn't work in my project 😔
Would appreciate anyone trying their hand at it 🙇‍♂️

[whyboris]

Tried again in my project - still doesn't work 🤦
Not a problem with angular-electron 👌
If anyone figures it out, I'd appreciate a comment / link on my PR: whyboris/Video-Hub-App#752
