Running a task on the .NET stack?

I've seen grumbling on the MEANJS stack has a file watcher to automatically perform tasks such as moving files when they change. Is there anything similar in .NET space, or am I better off installing node.js and adding grunt to my development stack? I really want to move .js / .css / .cshtml from my code repository to my wwwroot when they are edited and saved.

You better add Grunt to the development stack. Then you can use the following extensions to add support to Visual Studio: - Task Launcher - NPM and Bower Intellisense - Grunt Luncher

If you are on a Mac, you can use CodeKit (not free). But still, Grunt is highly recommended for what you are trying to achieve.

You may also need Web Essentials to view your CSS / JS.

Yep, FileSystemWatcher in the System.IO namespace (MSDN)
