// Note that ES6 modules cannot directly export class objects.
// This file should be imported using the CommonJS-style:

// Alternatively, if --allowSyntheticDefaultImports or
// --esModuleInterop is turned on, this file can also be
// imported as a default import:
//   import x from '[~THE MODULE~]';

// Refer to the TypeScript documentation at
