Typedoc is broken

I can't compile my project's documentation.
Here's the log:

I expect this to be a Typescript version issue. TypeDoc is on version 2.7 right now

[Mikhus]

Yes, same problem, heads up for accepting PR with typescript version update

[dskvr]

Typedoc shouldn't prevent people from upgrading Typescript. Documentation reacts to development, it shouldn't dictate development. This is an anti-pattern.

[blink1073]

@dskvr, please bear in mind everyone working on this project is doing so out of good will. The original project was written before public APIs were available in TypeScript to make it feasible for this library to work across versions. Updating the project to use the new API is a substantial effort. cf #378

[aciccarello]

Moving to a peer dependency is under consideration for a 1.0.0 release. Until then typedoc will continue to include typescript as a direct dependency. Since TypeDoc is currently released with TypeScript 3.1 I believe this issue should be resolved.

If you have an immediate issue, please see the Updating guide for a workaround to TypeScript upgrades.
