Combining two launch.json configurations to run sequentially in Visual Studio Code - visual-studio-code

Question

As part of a .NET Core 2.0 project I'm starting up a .dll then launching Chrome to debug the front end via the Debugger for Chrome extension.
If I launch both manually as such:
{
"name": "[Development] Launch Server",
"type": "coreclr",
"request": "launch",
"preLaunchTask": "build",
"program": "${workspaceRoot}/bin/Debug/netcoreapp2.0/Website.dll",
"args": [],
"cwd": "${workspaceRoot}",
"stopAtEntry": false,
"internalConsoleOptions": "openOnSessionStart",
"env": {
"ASPNETCORE_ENVIRONMENT": "LocalDevelopment"
},
"sourceFileMap": {
"/Views": "${workspaceRoot}/Views"
}
}
and then
{
"name": "[Development] Debug Browser",
"type": "chrome",
"request": "launch",
"url": "http://localhost:5000/home",
"port": 9222,
"webRoot": "${workspaceRoot}",
"sourceMapPathOverrides": {
"webpack:///./*": "${workspaceRoot}\\*"
}
}
everything works great. However, this is a slow process because the 'Launch Server' configuration takes a few minutes to build/release and then I must manually launch 'Debug Browser'.
Ideally I would have a 'one click' solution that handles the first configuration and upon release starts up the second configuration.
I have tried:
"compounds": [
{
"name": "[Development] Launch Server & Debug Browser",
"configurations": [
"[Development] Launch Server",
"[Development] Debug Browser"
]
}
]
but this just ends up launching the first configuration and receiving this error
while the second configuration seemingly never firing off. I've looked into tasks.json but I'm not sure that's the right place for what I'm trying to accomplish.
How can I turn this into a fire and forget?
