Hi,

ASP.NET Core 1.0 was previously called ASP.NET 5. It was renamed in January 2016. It supports cross-platform frameworks ( Windows, Linux, Mac ) for building modern cloud-based internet-connected applications like IOT, web apps, and mobile back-end.
Importance Of Asp.Net Core
Packages Overview NuGet ( Server Side ) & Bower ( Client Side ) & Node.Js ( Build Tools and Node.js )
Removed duplication and now MVC and Web API are the features of ASP.Net Core.
Modular libraries & runtime optimized for the server and cloud workloads.
Cross platform support (build & run on Windows, Linux and MAC).
ASP.NET Core (previously known as ASP.NET 5) is open source.
Performance improvement and much faster than the old versions.
Ability to host on IIS or self-host in your own process.
Unified framework for MVC, Web API and SignalR.
Seamless transition from on-premises to cloud (Full cloud-based support)
Full support of NuGet Package Manager.
Automatically recompile the application.
Built-in dependency injection.
Light weight and fast development cycle.

ASP.NET one step forward to make the Microsoft Technology as Opensource. Microsoft rewrite the full ASP.NET base to make it cross platform.

The CORE frameworks which includes ASP.net CORE is basically just a framework which allows it to be hosted on multiple operating systems such as Windows, MAC and Linux.
Essentially the same functionality as regular ASP.NET but with multi platform support.
However since it is new there are some new features. Some are detailed here http://www.c-sharpcorner.com/UploadFile/8a67c0/14-new-things-about-Asp-Net-5/
