We're using asp.net core and pulling in javascript libraries through our libman.json file in our project. Visual Studio automatically pulls those files in. How can we have those libraries pulled down as part of the build process (similar to Nuget restore)?

Here is a sample of what is in our libman.json

{
  "version": "1.0",
  "defaultProvider": "cdnjs",
  "libraries": [
    {
      "library": "lazysizes@5.1.2",
      "destination": "wwwroot/lib/lazysizes/"
    },
    {
      "library": "dropzone@5.5.1",
      "destination": "wwwroot/lib/dropzone/"
    }
  ]
}

   Hi Austin,

   You can use LibMan CLI to restore the packages. LibMan CLI could be installed during the build: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/aspnet/core/client-side/libman/lib...
