 ## What is NPMTS?
 NPMTS is your friend when it comes to write, test, publish and document NPM modules written in TypeScript.
+By default NPMTS will **bundle declaration files**. As a result npm module **code completion in editors like Visual Studio Code** works.
 
 There is a docker image available that includes npmts to make CI a breeze:
