I recently wanted to write and test some very basic MSBuild scripts but I didn't want to install Visual Studio. If you recall, MSBuild stopped shipping with the .NET Framework and began shipping with Visual Studio.
So, what was I to do?
Well, fortunately, Microsoft released the Microsoft Build Tools 2013 to address this exact problem: http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=40760
The download is less than 20 MB and after installing the Build Tools on my machine, I was able to successfully run my MSBuild scripts!
