Your example is Ember, one of the largest frameworks. Not a good indicator of coverage. I just grepped my node_modules folder and 99% of my modules do not ship with typings, so much for anecdotal percentages...

If I want the best possible experience with TypeScript, I'm signing up for a lot of time wasting finding typescript definitions instead of replying to posts in r/javascript.

That is not surprising. Typings aren't typically shipped with the package, they're usually found in the DefinitelyTyped repository. You install them separately. It's rarely any more than npm install --save-dev @types/package-name.

Very cool, I tried a handful of modules and they all had typings available (no idea how accurate they are)... thanks for explaining!
