Installing Visual Studio 2015
Visual Studio 2015 is the base software that you will use to leverage the SQL Server Data Tools (SSDT) components. SSDT contains the templates that you use to design and develop your Tabular Models. If you already have Visual Studio installed then you can install SSDT with Visual Studio.
