The Problem:

I'm receiving a Typescript 2.2.1 compilation error when trying to append a compiled angular 1.5 template to an existing HTMLElement.

Code:

$document.find(scope.target)[0].append($compile(menu)(scope)[0]);

Compile error:

[ts] Property 'append' does not exist on type 'HTMLElement'

I've searched through the type definitions and don't see a signature for append().

Any ideas as to which type or version of typescript I should be using?

Thanks!
