Don't forget to remove the spyware that MS has backported from Windows 10 to Windows 7.

You can hardly believe it, but John Smith was once a very shy guy who was afraid of human contact.
He didn't have any friends at school and his time in college was a social vacuum.
He messed up work interviews time after time.
For years, a relationship was unthinkable, let alone a large group of friends.
But people can change. Radically change.
Not John though. He refused to co-operate for this interview.

So how is this supposed to help ... or is ritual humiliation a big thing for De Speld? What does that translate as, 'The Torturer'?

Should've used the joke icon.
Nothing in De Speld is actually true, John Smith isn't real, it's just an anti-climax kind of thing.
De Speld translates as The Pin by the way.

Into what? Unintelligible gobbledygook???
I'm sure it;s highly amusing but it is not in the mother tongue... English!

So I bit the bullet and installed VS2015 Web Express just to kick the tires a little and see what it is all about.
First thing is to create a few default projects (with default choices in the dialogs) and to see what it produces.
Asp.Net 4.5.2 Templates:
Web Forms:
Nothing obvious changed here. Creates 346 files in 147 folders in a familiar pattern.
MVC:
Again, very familiar. 276 files and 131 folders.
Asp.Net 5 Preview Templates:
Web Application:
Wow! That is confusing: a spaghetti bowl of folders with stuff all over the place. Produces 2112 files in 514 folders. This is going to take some time...
I know I have to get going with the new fangled stuff but, damn, what's with almost 10 times the cruft???

I'm sorry, but that many files are just silly for any self-respecting application. "Hello, world!" takes that many files?
I'm glad I'm still doing process control apps in a desktop environment...
Software Zen: delete this;

I'm pretty sure a large amount of the files could be safely eliminated but any project that requires that much support just to create a basic app is going to struggle to gain traction. The complexity of having to deal with all of that for a simple application is ridiculous.

Seriously?
I use (and have been using VS 2015), but I NEVER generate MS projects. I fully expect new project = ONE file! Or at least no more than four (to include makefiles, etc.). That web application has more files and folders than I have in my personal framework that I have been building for a quarter century! Including all of the "projects" that I have built using it.
Something is wrong with that. Glad I don't use it.
