# 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](http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkID=517854).
Your new project automatically takes advantage of modern client-side utilities like [Bower](http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=518004) and [npm](http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=518005) (to add client-side libraries) and [Gulp](http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=518007) (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
