Visual Studio 2013 update 5 with Team Foundation Server (TFS) 2015

Question

I'm using Visual Studio 2013 professioanl update 5, and I have new TFS server 2015 with Default collection only. From this VS, I've connected to this server TFS 2015, and when I press on "Create Team Project" I got an error

How can I create a New Team project using 2013 on TFS 2015 ?

Answer 1

Ever since TFS has been released, you can only create a new team project with the version that is at least the same as the TFS server. In your case you'll need to be running Visual Studio 2015.

The Community Edition will be enough, I haven't installed an express edition in ages, but I suspect that even Visual studio 2015 express for Desktop will do the trick.
