Answer 1

After I complain for a whole day to Visual Studio 2015 for moving my cheese, I calmed down and just when ahead to find out how to do it the new way, I now I back to loving vs2015 :)

If you already had all your files configured, don't worry do not delete your existing configuration we will use it

1. Install Web Essentials for 2115
2. Select the files you want to bundle, if you already had the files configured and are too many only select a couple we can edit the config later
3. right-click and select "Bundle and Minifier" - "Bundle and Minify Files" (Shift-Alt-F)
4. Save the bundled in your prefeer location (maybe with a different name from the previous one, so you don't override it)
5. the first difference is that you will not see yourfile.js.bundle. Instead there is a new bundleconfig.json at your root folder
6. if you open the file you can see now you can have only one config file for all your bundles
7. Now you can copy your existing configuration from yourfile.bundle which is XML and that's ok
8. Paste into the new bundleconfig.json and just remove all the tags

and that's it... your new config is now setup
