Typescript Strict mode

[DonJayamanne]

• Fix all tslint errors
• Fix all typescript errors when compiled in strict mode

I was wondering about this because linter errors often come up when editing.

Is this really an important, realistic goal? There are 1,763 errors from hygiene when run on the whole project, last I checked. Maybe fixing errors on each file as they are modified is more realistic.

That's been taken care of. Thats the current behavior.

The goal is to ensure PRs get rejected if linting falls. And we need to fix all errors,.

1,763 that's interesting, I thought there were merely 500!!

I might be confused, I'm referring to output of gulp hygiene, this is the output I get (ignoring warnings) https://gist.github.com/elliott-beach/2d3e76bff4cb1ff0355afee3d95704c5
