Installing ASP.NET 5 On Windows
===============================
By `Rick Anderson`_, `Steve Smith`_, `Daniel Roth`_
This page shows you how to install ASP.NET 5 on Windows. To run ASP.NET 5 apps on IIS, see :doc:`/publishing/iis`.

Install ASP.NET 5 with Visual Studio
------------------------------------
The easiest way to get started building applications with ASP.NET 5 is to install the latest version of Visual Studio 2015 (including the free Community edition).
1. Install `Visual Studio 2015 <https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=532606>`__
Be sure to specify that you want to include the Microsoft Web Developer Tools.

2. Install `ASP.NET 5 <https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=627627>`_.
This will install the latest ASP.NET 5 runtime and tooling.
3. Enable the ASP.NET 5 command-line tools. Open a command-prompt and run::
dnvm upgrade
This will make the default :doc:`/dnx/index` active on the path.
4. On Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2 you will also need to install the `Visual C++ Redistributable for Visual Studio 2012 Update 4 <https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/confirmation.aspx?id=30679>`__.
You are all set up and ready to write :doc:`your first ASP.NET 5 application </tutorials/your-first-aspnet-application>`!
Install ASP.NET 5 from the command-line
---------------------------------------
You can also install ASP.NET 5 from the command-line. There are a few steps involved, since we'll need to install and configure the environment in which ASP.NET runs, the :doc:`/dnx/index`. To install DNX, we need one more tool, the .NET Version Manager (DNVM).
Install the .NET Version Manager (DNVM)
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Use .NET Version Manager to install different versions of the .NET Execution Environment (DNX).
To install DNVM open a command prompt and run the following::
@powershell -NoProfile -ExecutionPolicy unrestricted -Command "&{$Branch='dev';iex ((new-object net.webclient).DownloadString('https://raw.githubusercontent.com/aspnet/Home/dev/dnvminstall.ps1'))}"
Once this step is complete you should be able to run ``dnvm`` and see some help text.
Install the .NET Execution Environment (DNX)
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
The .NET Execution Environment (DNX) is used to build and run .NET projects. Use DNVM to install DNX for the full .NET Framework or for .NET Core (see :doc:`choosing-the-right-dotnet`).
**To install DNX for .NET Core:**
1. Use DNVM to install DNX for .NET Core::
dnvm upgrade -r coreclr
**To install DNX for the full .NET Framework:**
1. Use DNVM to install DNX for the full .NET Framework::
dnvm upgrade -r clr
By default DNVM will install DNX for the full .NET Framework if no runtime is specified.
