I have noticed that VS Code is able to navigate the relative import paths on Ember apps but it does not understand the import location during development when using the app name like so:
`import SomeObject from '../../objects/some-object';`
vs
`import SomeObject from 'app-name/objects/some-object';`
Does anyone know if there is a setting in VS code that would help it navigate to definition during development?

I too have noticed and have wondered about that. I don’t have a solution at this time though.

the language server typically makes this work, especially if using typescript and configuring the paths
