title: How can I run gulp with a typescript file
body: <p>Have a gulp project that uses a gulp.js file but my project is in typescript so I'd rather have a gulp file in typescript. It would be possible to break the process into two steps where I:<br><br>
   1. Manually transpile the typescript gulp file into js, then<br>
   2. Call <code>gulp &lt;some-task-name&gt;</code><br><br>
  But that doesn't seem optimal. Is there any better way of doing
      this?</p>
