This article is still not up-to-date for ASP.NET 3.x and ASP.NET Core 5.0

[hfaran]

For all versions of ASP.NET Core that you look at this article for, it tells you to install the https://www.nuget.org/packages/Microsoft.VisualStudio.Web.BrowserLink package, which looks like it has been deprecated since the move to .NET Core 3.x and above, because I assume it has been moved inside the framework.

I can only find vague answers on Stack Overflow about how to get BrowserLink to work for ASP.NET Core 3.x and above (none of which has worked for me). The official guidance for this feature really should be updated or the feature should be removed if it is no longer being supported.
