How do I get VS Code to understand my aliases in react native for command click?

So I'm using a package.json file to create custom aliases in my project 

{
  "name": "@name"
}

so that I can change this

import Component from '../../../some/deeply/ambiguous/name';

to this

import `Componentfrom '@name';

However, I can't command + click to jump to that module from the import statement, VS code cannot resolve the path.

There are a couple other ways to do this (https://www.novis.co/post/custom-aliases-in-react-native-with-babel/), is there is any way that I can do aliasing and somehow have visual studio code recognize the path and be able to jump to it?

Mine work and I've just added in the paths to tsconfig, maybe give that a go. Try adding in the paths into tsconfig.json in your root. Close and reopen VSCode.

baseUrl": ".",
"paths" : {
  "@app/*" : ["src/*"]
}
