Problem

Is there any possible chance we might see File Nesting in Visual Studio Code the same way it works in Visual Studio 2015? It was really convenient and helpful. I would adore such a feature!

Solution: File Nesting

Low Risk

This is important feature for large projects. I'm using asp.net vNext for Angular project and now I've following structure automatically (by naming): [code block] In VS Code Explorer I got: [code block] Creating folders for each component is bad solution for angular project (you will need to change references). We need this feature to move to VS Code.
