Answer 1

Make sure you add the DotNetCliToolReference to your WebApi project. I assume the VS2017 csproj file.

  <ItemGroup>
    <DotNetCliToolReference Include="Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore.Tools.DotNet" Version="1.0.0" />
    <DotNetCliToolReference Include="BundlerMinifier.Core" Version="2.2.281" />
  </ItemGroup>

The second entry in the code is above.
