Typescript compiling errors using 'vss-web-extension-sdk' & 'azure-pipelines-task-lib'

I am trying to follow the following guide to make a custom task in azure devops https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/devops/extend/develop/add-build-task?view=azure-devops

When I install both 'azure-pipelines-task-lib' & 'vss-web-extension-sdk' and have a single typescript file that requires the task-lib, like the guide suggests, I get tons of typescript errors.

package.json

  "dependencies": {
    "azure-pipelines-task-lib": "^3.1.9",
    "typescript": "^4.4.3",
    "vss-web-extension-sdk": "^5.141.0"
  }

tsconfig.json

{
    "compilerOptions": {
        "module": "commonjs",
        "moduleResolution": "node",
        "target": "es6",
        "rootDir": "src/",
        "outDir": "dist/",
        "types": [
            "vss-web-extension-sdk"
        ]
    },
    "files": [
        "src/index.ts"
    ]
}

index.ts

import tl = require('azure-pipelines-task-lib/task');

export function Foo() {
    return "BAR"
}

Can someone provide me with ANY working example of compiling typescript when these libraries are installed?
