This project is a minimal template for using ASP.NET Core with modern frontend build tools.
It is built upon the original MVC template and can be customized any way you want.

View-specific bundles are automatically created for each .cshtml file with a corresponding .cshtml.{js,ts} file in the same location.
Note: TypeScript support is not included out of the box. It needs to be configured manually in the build configuration if needed.
Bundles will not be generated for partial views and view components.
Bundles can also be created manually by creating a file using a .bundle.{js,ts} suffix anywhere in the project directory.
Note: The .bundle part will be stripped of the resulting bundle name.
The _Layout.cshtml view is configured to automatically include a view-specific bundle if it exists. If not, the Layout bundle in Assets/bundles will be loaded instead (See AspNet.AssetManager for more documentation).
Import aliases are automatically configured so root can be resolved using: @/.
If using areas, they are also automatically aliased also using: @<area>/.
Start development server with hot-reload using npm start script in project folder.
Build production assets using npm run build script in project folder.
