Task Runner Explorer: gulpfile.babel.js tasks not listed

Steps to Reproduce

1. File --> New --> Project --> ASP.NET Core Web Application (.NET Core)
2. Rename gulpfile.js in Solution Explorer to gulpfile.babel.js
3. Click the Refresh icon in TRX

Notice that TRX doesn't display any of the tasks in the default Gulp file:

Now, rename the file back to either gulpfile.js or gulpfile.ts, refresh TRX, and the tasks are again displayed in TRX:

I'm using VS 2015 Update 2.

Hello Team, I'm interested in this for a current project.

Has there been any progress?

It works on VS 2015 Update 3. Please give it a try and let me know if you run into any problems.

Almost one year later, but today I tried to load a gulp file called gulpfile.babel.js and didn't show up on the task runner explorer. Anybody found walk around to use gulp with ES2016 support?

I'm using VS 2015 Update 3.

Thanks!
