Are ASP.NET MVC5 and ASP.NET Web API 2 compatible with VS2012

Question

I have VS2012 and may not be able to upgrade it to VS2013 just yet, I want to know whether I can use it to build ASP.NET MVC 5.0 and ASP.NET Web API 2 projects? From the ASP.NET web site, it seems that VS2013 is required.

Answer 1

You can use vs2012. Check this Web Tools 2013.1 for Visual Studio 2012
