I've got webpack and HMR working nicely with an ASP.NET Core 2 project (thanks to the docs here). SCSS changes bubble up nicely in the browser without a full page reload.

What I'm not clear on is how to include various views (cshtml) to this. Is this something I should be looking to webpack to help with or should is there an alternative option here?

My intitial thought was to use Mads Kristensen's Browser Reload but now, even though I get cshtml changes auto reloading the page, changes to the webpack-handled scss also generate a page reload, which is obviously a backwards step.

Has anyone got these two to work together correctly?
