ng serve doesn't generate dist folder anymore with new angular-cli webpack beta
<p>I initially started a project with beta 10 of the <code>angular-cli</code>, when I run <code>ng serve</code> at that point of time the dist folder would contain the compiled files that were generated by <code>ng serve</code>.</p>

<p>Now I upgraded my app to RC5 and <code>beta 11.webpack</code> of the <code>angular-cli</code> and <code>ng serve</code> doesn't generate the dist folder anymore.
This is problematic because I have a Spring Boot backend which is configured to map the dist folder as it's static folder.</p>

<p>Is there a way to get this behaviour with the webpack angular-cli as well?</p>

<p>Exact version of angular-cli is: <code>1.0.0-beta.11-webpack.2</code></p>

<p>Edit: the point is that I need the auto compile from ng serve, I don't want to run ng build every time I make a change in the source files.</p>
