 ### Addons
 
 Addons are JavaScript modules that extend the `Terminal` prototype with new methods and attributes to provide additional functionality. There are a handful available in the main repository in the `src/addons` directory and you can even write your own, by using xterm.js' public API.

+#### Importing Addons in TypeScript
+
+There are currently no typings for addons if they are accessed via extending Terminal prototype, so you will need to upcast if using TypeScript, eg. `(<any>xterm).fit()`.
+
+Alternatively, you can import addon function and enhance the terminal on demand. This would have better typing support and is friendly to treeshaking. E.g.:
+
+```typescript
+import { Terminal } from 'xterm';
+import { fit } from 'xterm/lib/addons/fit/fit';
+const xterm = new Terminal();
+
+// Fit the terminal when necessary:
+fit(xterm);
+```
