The CLI is so bare bones, that it's actually hard to work with.

Some suggestions include providing the capability to automatically use Environment Variables provided via the default launch profiles. This will allow the usage of env.IsDevelopment() and etc.

Rather than building the main application and than executing the binary, launching the application via dotnet run on the .csproj would be preferable. Continuing from this, it should support the dotnet watch tool, allowing the developer to make changes to the the ASP.Net Core webapp and having the server automatically re-compile.

On a side note, because I don't really want to make another issue to suggest this, pointing developers using SPA frameworks to the SpaServices extension (Mircosoft.AspNetCore.SpaServices) and using the ISpaBuilder.UseProxyToSpaDevelopmentServer method to provide hot reloading without any additional configuration from the standard framework methods,
