I'm having issues with HMR in Visual Studio 2015 (Update 3, running with ctrl-F5), but I think the issue is with webpack. I've just created a new .NET Core Angular 2 template from scratch. It runs fine, however when I make any changes these aren't applied. I've not made any changes to the settings, so I'm using the following versions (from package.json):

Jan 21, 2009 I need to know-- why does Visual Studio take a VERY long time to save changes in some of my Web site projects? Here is the scenario. I have a simple web site project, less than 300 files with 1000 lines or less in each file. I make a global change-- such as rename a namespace-- that affects 200 of the files. I click >File, >SaveAll. It is most likely because you uninstalled some SQL Server components Visual Studio is using. Though Visual Studio still works, it's very slow. Just go to 'Programs and Features' in the Control Panel and repair Visual Studio. The needed Visual Studio components will be installed again and Visual Studio will be back as fast as before.
I'm using Node version 4.6.1:

NPM version 3.10.8:
For manual building I installed webpack globally using npm install -g webpack following the guide here. It's version 1.13.3 (as seen in compile output below)
There's a couple of things I've noticed.
- Webpack does not seem to be compiling the typescript on save. It only does it when I build. However, I manually compiled the typescript, and it's taking a long time (over twenty seconds! I've had it as high as 45 on a project that I'd added a few more components to):
This doesn't seem right.
- But also, even after this the browser isn't updated. main-client.js has been compiled using the manual process and HMR is running ([HMR] connected shows in console, I can see http://localhost:59267/__webpack_hmr is running).
Even if I refresh the page, the changes are not applied. I have noticed however that the server-rendering has the change, but then this is quickly replaced by an unmodified main-client.js. Here's an example:
- Change
<h1>Hello, world!</h1>to<h1>Hello, world! Change</h1>. - Save (nothing happens).
- Compile manually with
webpack --config webpack.config.js - Refresh browser. Server side rendering shows 'Change', then client kicks in and it disappears. See gif:
The only solution I've found is to close the browser, re-build with visual studio and re-launch the IIS server. I cant find any settings to configure the webpack process, so I'm struggling to find out what's wrong and why it isn't working.
I recently installed Visual Studio for mac right after the day it was launched. It consumed 20 gb of my disc space, so I decided to remove it. I went in to the applications folder and moved recently installed components associated with the installation to the trash. But it did not free any space at all. So I searched online and followed the following link for uninstallation: Uninstalling Xamarin
After following the link and entering all the terminal commands, I was only able to free up 10 gb of storage. How do I free up the rest 10 gb of the storage ?

There are other applications outside of Xamarin which also use Mono, such as Unity. Be sure that there are no other dependencies on Mono before uninstalling it.
Other apps with name prefix Xamarin
The official guide didn't mention it, but I found there were other apps named Xamarin.xxxx in my library directory. I simply moved them to trash.
DavidPostill♦May be this would be better solution (no need to follow each step): https://raw.githubusercontent.com/MicrosoftDocs/visualstudio-docs/master/mac/resources/uninstall-vsmac.sh :
If you haven't dealt with bash script before, you may look at its documentation too: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/visualstudio/mac/uninstall
Actually, it is pretty easy. Create a file with extension .sh (for example, vsremover.sh) and paste the code above. Save. Open terminal application, go to the place where you saved the file (for example: cd /Users/yourname/Desktop) and type the following:
Then run it:
