Typescript files not compiled to javascript files in website project in Visual Studio
<p>I opened an Angular 2 website in Visual Studio 2015 update 3 as a website project.
I added the "compileOnSave": true to tsconfig.json and restarted VS. I rebuilt the project and ran it however no .js files are being created. I am using Typescript 2.0.3. I see 'BuildOnSave..' messages when I edit a .ts file.</p>

<p>Any ideas why Javascript files are not being created?</p>

<p><strong>Update</strong> tsconfig.json:</p>

<pre><code>{
    /*"compileOnSave": true,*/
    "compilerOptions": {
        "target": "es5",
        "module": "system",
        "moduleResolution": "node",
        "sourceMap": true,
        "watch": true,
        "emitDecoratorMetadata": true,
        "experimentalDecorators": true,
        "removeComments": false,
        "noImplicitAny": false
    },
    "exclude": [
        "node_modules",
        "typings/main",
        "typings/main.d.ts"
    ]
}
</code></pre>
