Today, at the Build Conference 2013, Microsoft announced – as it was expected – the availability of a preview of Visual Studio 2013, together with the new .NET Framework 4.5.1 and Windows 8.1.

Here you can find further information about .NET 4.5.1 and Visual Studio 2013, while here you can find a preview of the new features and capabilities of the Office Developer Tools for Visual Studio 2013. It is really challenging the native support for ASP.NET MVC apps in SharePoint, as well as the new Publishing Manager for apps for Office and SharePoint.

You can download Visual Studio 2013 Preview from here: http://www.microsoft.com/visualstudio/eng/2013-downloads
