Welcome to ASP.NET 5 Preview
We've made some big updates in this release, so it’s important that you spend a few minutes to learn what’s new.
ASP.NET 5 has been rearchitected to make it lean and composable. It's fully open source and available on GitHub. Your new project automatically takes advantage of modern client-side utilities like Bower and npm (to add client-side libraries) and Gulp (for client-side build and automation tasks).
We hope you enjoy the new capabilities in ASP.NET 5 and Visual Studio 2015. The ASP.NET Team
