Suggestion
Here is the snippet that load the module:
import Aboukara from "../../AboukaraLib";
const combo_regex = /\w+@\w+\.[a-zA-Z]+:.+/gm;
Currently when I import a .node file the compiler throw me this error:
[6:13:25 PM] File change detected. Starting incremental compilation...
src/utils/findCombo.ts:1:22 - error TS2307: Cannot find module '../../AboukaraLib' or its corresponding type declarations.
1 import Aboukara from "../../AboukaraLib";
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
[6:13:25 PM] Found 1 error. Watching for file changes.
If the compiler would be able to understand it it would make it useful for people who use native module.

Research direction
No implementation file, test, or entry point is named; begin by tracing module resolution for the import shown in the issue and reviewing existing tests for native module extensions. Done should mean the compiler accepts imports of .node files without the reported TS2307 error, with behavior covered by an appropriate test.
