The examples in this book require only ASP.NET 2.0, which is included in the free redistributable version of the .NET Framework. However, to make the most of ASP.NET and Atlas, you should use one of the IDE offerings from Microsoft. Visual Web Developer 2005 Express Edition (VWD) is free; Visual Studio 2005 (in its various editions) is the commercial package with more features. Both are perfectly suited for using the examples in this book.
