title: Using Grunt, Bower, Gulp, NPM with Visual Studio 2015 for a ASP.NET 4.5 Project
body: <p>Visual Studio 2015 comes with built in support for tools like Grunt, Bower, Gulp and NPM for ASP.NET 5 projects.</p>
  
  <p>However when I create a ASP.NET 4.5.2 project using Visual Studio 2015 it doesn't use these tools. I'd like to use bower instead of nuget to manage client side packages.</p>
  
  <p>I can find information about using these tools with Visual Studio 2013 (see <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/27070362/how-can-i-use-bower-as-a-package-manager-with-visual-studio-2013-i-e-i-have-a">this</a> question for example). But I guess the procedure is different for Visual Studio 2015 since it has built in support for these tools.</p>
