Hi,
I am trying, again for the 100th time :(, to learn developing Web API. I am using a short book from Succinctly specifically designed for learning ASP.NET Web API. The book is probably dated but hopefully not that much. When going through steps of creating Hello World, the author is using ASP.NET MVC 4 project template in VS 2012. I am using VS 2015 Community. And when I create a new project, I don't see the template ASP.NET Web API. But what I see, appears to be the closest, is ASP.NET Web Application. Would it give me pretty the same project structure as ASP.NET MVC 4?
TIA
Update. When choosing the ASP.NET Web Application, VS prompts me to choose from the list of templates. One of them is Web API (as shown in attached image). I hope it is similar to MVC 4.
Update 2. So, I went ahead and chose the template Web API. And, voila, VS 2015 created a project. Looking at the Solution Explorer, it is MVC type. But how do I determine if this is MVC 4 or MVC 5?
