Configuring ts-loader to be fast is quite challenging:

Could you please add it? :)

Thank you. This is a highly requested feature. I am not familiar with Typescript, will do some research !

We now have typescript support thanks to @mhadaily ! It's not optimized to keep thing simple. Maybe optimized typescript should be an option?

By now, the fastest way to get TypeScript working with webpack looks something like this example:
