That doesn't sound like its terribly complicated but I'm afraid I don't understand. Could you give a more detailed answer?
What custom visual do you want to inherit?

- Chiclet Slicer.
You just need to install Chiclet Slicer as a dependency via NPM. After that please add TS files into your tsconfig.json. Please do the same for externalJS from pbiviz.json.
After these steps you will be able to import Chiclet Slicer to inherit it.

- That is list the github repo in my package.json as a dependancy, the path to all of the .ts files in the chiclet slicers src folder to my tsconfig. What should be added to externalJS?
