So I installed VS2015 CTP6. In the blog of Scott it advertises:

Dynamic Development. In Visual Studio 2015, we take advantage of dynamic compilation to provide a streamlined developer experience. You no longer have to compile your application every time you want to see a change. Instead, just (1) edit the code, (2) save your changes, (3) refresh the browser, and then (4) see your change automatically appear.

Well, if I do that visual studio kills the browser on the save action. What am I doing wrong?

Created a new project, asp.net 5 and switched runtime to coreclr. Tried IIS express & "web"..

The new edit & continue functionality for Roslyn currently does not work with the debugger attached. This will be fixed in a future release. You can start without debugging (ctrl + F5) if you want edit & continue support.

This really needs to be documented within the blog post / noted in the talks. I just wasted 2 hours guessing and trying to install /update stuff because of this until finally I used the right words in Google and got here. (assuming you work at Microsoft...)
I just wasted 2 days for it.
