Recently, Microsoft made some major announcements including open sourcing .NET, making Visual Studio to work with open source platforms and much more. One of the announcements was also about renaming its .NET Framework. The previous version of .NET was .NET 4.5 and I still see some .NET 4.6 mentions in the documents and online.
But the new version of .NET will be called .NET 2015. .NET 2015 includes many sub versions of the framework and one of them being .NET 4.5.2.
Universal Windows apps performance
.NET Native increases performance of the applications. Test Windows apps are showing performance imrovements of up to 60%.
There are significant changes in how web applications and cloud services are developed, managed and distributed. Features include totally modular, faster development cycle, seamless transition from on-premises to cloud, more choices of editors and tools, open source with contributions, faster development and so on.
The .NET Compiler platform, codenamed “Roslyn”, is a completely open source platform.
Watch Habib Heydarian, Program Manager of .NET talks about these new features introduced in .NET 2015.

I find it very interesting in context of ease the opensource coding which i usually achieved resort to MONO earlier. Now, i can easily demonstrate, how to execute .NET binary in Linux, Unix, Fedora, Ubuntu and more specially at KALI "The Hacking OS", even illustrate android app building via VS 2015 instead of "Xamarin studio". Great....
