Typescript can already use javascript libraries, you just need to define the interface of what of it that you want to use within typescript itself.

You could roll your own typing or use it as-is by using require.

const { Socket } = require('phoenix'); // no typing available
const socket:any = new Socket(...)

This will at least get you going and you can always come back later to optimize the typing.
