TypeScript problem in graphql.d.ts

[adriatic]

I reported this redwoodjs/redwood#6078 issue, discovered in the context of trying to create a TypeScript version of the Redwood Tutorial. At that time I was not aware of the same effort by @rushabhhere. As I was having the similar issue with a different application (redwood-stripe) I decided to convert the redwood tutorial app to typescript hoping to better understand my original problem, described below

In order to reproduce my issue create any TypeScript app

yarn create redwood-app --ts ./myapp

Observe the just generated file graphql.d.ts in api/types folder, the definition of the scalars type

/** All built-in and custom scalars, mapped to their actual values */
export type Scalars = {
  ID: string;
  String: string;
  Boolean: boolean;
  Int: number;
  Float: number;
  BigInt: number;
  Date: string;
  DateTime: string;
  JSON: Prisma.JsonValue;
  JSONObject: Prisma.JsonObject;
  Time: string;
};

This same code rendered by VSCode is:

The issue with JSON and JSONObject is

Seemingly an import statement is missing 😺

Yeah, this is not a problem with any particular RW project. If we should/could fix it, it'd be in the framework code for type generation. I'm not sure what change needs to be made though. If you could dig into it and find a solution that'd be awesome :)

@Tobbe - I believe that I did find the change and it is trivial - please check my explanation to @rushabhhere (https://github.com/rushabhhere) so I do not pollute all discussions with my comments 😸 .
