Documentation for usage with minimal TypeScript setup

[Shinigami92]

Clear and concise description of the problem

Currently it's not clear for a TypeScript developer that they need to configure their tsconfig.json with the compilerOptions seen below.
We need to document that.

Suggested solution

// tsconfig.json
{
  "compilerOptions": {
    "esModuleInterop": true,
    "moduleResolution": "Node"
  }
}

Hi @Shinigami92,

Just to know how what to write, I've just launched a simple project with: typescript, jest and faker.
I started with project with a basic tsconfig.json file created when you run tsc --init.

The esModuleInterop is already set to true, but no moduleResolution option is set.
According to typescript documentation the default value is Classic.

I can do the modification on the README if you want, but are you sure about the last option?

No I'm not 100% sure, but think I have tested it and it did not work or at least did not use the esm version
Maybe something is fixed now after #520 🤔
But then it would take the cjs instead of esm, so maybe the moduleResolution is only valuable if you want to use esm, and I think you want

Ok :)
I pushed a PR. Let me know if it was what you had in mind.
