title: No bower/npm config files are part of the latest .NET Core 2.0 Web App templates, but client-side libraries are installed
body: <p>The latest ASP.NET Core 2.0 template doesn't have a bower config or a packages.json, but comes with client side packages such as bootstrap and jquery. How do we takeover from here and manage these packages. It was straightforward with the previous template simply using the bower config that came with the project to maintain client side packages.</p>
  
  <p>As of now I have been deleting everything in the lib folder, creating a packages.json or bower config manually and reinstalling. Am I missing something here? Why wouldn't they start you out with a config file for the packages that come pre-installed especially since the client-side libraries that are pre-installed are installed from bower.</p>
