Develop sharepoint project without having local sharepoint installation

I have a SharePoint 2013 server on a remote machine.

I installed this: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=35585

on my development system then follow this steps.

Right click on VS 13. Run as administrator. File >> NEW >> Project Templates >> SharePoint Solution Select SharePoint 2013 - Empty Project I got this error.

The required version of SharePoint Foundation 2013 or SharePoint Server 2013 is not installed on this system. SharePoint must be installed on the local system to develop SharePoint solutions.

Is it possible to develop SharePoint project on development system?

It depends on what type of solution you want to develop. The error you get says:

SharePoint must be installed on the local system to develop SharePoint solutions.

  • so you can't develop SharePoint solutions
  • but you can develop apps for SharePoint.
