title: Import jquery and bootstrap in typescript commonjs
body: <p>i'm using browserify to import some nodejs modules. All working fine using this sintax:</p>
  
  <pre><code>$ = jQuery = require('jquery');
  require('bootstrap');
  require('angular');
  require('ngRoute');
  require('firebase');
  require('angularfire');
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Now i'm trying to convert that in typescript (using version 1.8) but i can't figure how to do it. I'm using tsify plugin from browserify</p>
  
  <p>i've tried some sintax like </p>
  
  <pre><code>import * as jquery from "jquery";
  import * as jQuery from "jquery";
  import * as $ from "jquery";
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>or </p>
  
  <pre><code>declare var jQuery;
  declare var $;
  import * as jquery from "jquery";
  $ = jQuery =jquery;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>but it's not working! </p>
