Did you have the svelte.enable-ts-plugin enabled? If you do but still have the problem, you can try restarting the editor.

[kswope]

Ok, I enabled it and it seemed to work. Did I accidentally turn this off or is it the the default for the plugin? And if its the default, WHY would the plugin not be configured to work with sveltekit right away?

[jasonlyu123]

It's off by default, but the VSCode extension will ask you to enable it. You probably click the "Do not show again" option.

[kswope]

Why wouldn't you want it on? That seems like unnecessary friction for potential svelte enjoyers.

[jasonlyu123]

It started as an experimental feature due to its reliance on some hacky solutions. And we never change it to "on" by default. We could probably change it to be on by default.
