I downloaded VS2012 Express for Web today just to mess with it. Did a tutorial that was on the ASP.Net website. Then I decided to start my own project and start it with an Empty site. This way I can see how/why some things were added and what they do. When trying to add:
@Styles.Render...
I came across the issue of not having Bundles defined which means that I need to add a reference to System.Web.Optimization. However, when I go to add a Reference, it's not in the list. When I go to "add" a reference in the tutorial I did, it's not in that list either. How does one add System.Web.Optimization to your project? It's obviously installed on my machine since I used it in the other application, but I didn't have to add it (was done when the project was created). The project that was created for the tutorial was from a ASP.Net MVC 4 template (Internet Application). When I started my own, I still used the ASP.Net MVC 4 template, but Empty instead.
Any help is appreciated. Thanks.
Microsoft.AspNet.Web.Optimization is the nuget package that you need to add
