Is it true that this extension cannot be installed via the Extensions Manager and can only be installed via your npm installation extension?

Yes

Thanks for the quick response. I actually got it all working via your instructions. While it's odd to have to install two of your extensions to get one, I can see no reasonable basis to complain when I get working software configured quickly, for free, following basic instructions. And your typescript plugin does exactly what I was looking for. So, bravo!

Thanks.

Long story:

brackets-typescript requires to download stuff from npm when installed
extensions manager can't do it
i built brackets-npm-registry so people can install complex extensions like brackets-typescript
i even put up a PR (https://github.com/adobe/brackets/pull/10602) so people didn't have to use brackets-npm-registry but it still hasn't been approved (PR created 15 Feb 2015)
