It's all about adding typescript to gulp - https://www.typescriptlang.org/docs/handbook/gulp.html

$ npm install --save-dev typescript gulp gulp-typescript
$ touch tsconfig.json

------ tsconfig.json ------

{
    "files": [
        "src/**/*.ts"
    ],
    "compilerOptions": {
        "noImplicitAny": true,
        "target": "es6"
    }
}

More about tsconfig -> https://www.typescriptlang.org/docs/handbook/tsconfig-json.html ----- gulpfile.js -----

var gulp = require("gulp");
var ts = require("gulp-typescript");
var tsProject = ts.createProject("tsconfig.json");

gulp.task("default", function () {
    return tsProject.src()
        .pipe(tsProject())
        .js.pipe(gulp.dest("dist"));
});
