According to GitHut, TypeScript is now the #5th most popular language on github:

Can you either add types directly to the package or update documentation on how to do it manually?

npm install cli-table
npm install --save @types/cli-table

tsconfig.json

{
 "compilerOptions": {
 "esModuleInterop": true
 }
}

index.ts

import Table from 'cli-table';

You'll save every developer 10 minutes :)
