Use baseUrl in tsconfig for absolute paths

[jamonholmgren]

We should discuss/consider using baseUrl in our tsconfig so we can change imports like this:

import { Thing } from "../../components/thing"

to this

import { Thing } from "components/thing"

Docs: https://www.typescriptlang.org/tsconfig#baseUrl

Hi @frankcalise , can we use absolute path without "~" ? I tried but not working, what you think?
