RESTful Webservice with VS 2015

I would like to create a RESTful webservice with writing C# and Visual Studio 2015

But in VS 2015 community edition I am missing the basic "Web" type in templates.

What is the recommended project type to create webservices now?

You need to select this project:

ASP.NET Web Application

enter image description here

When you click OK, you will get an additional window prompting for the exact type of the web application.

Select Web API there and you web service is ready.

You could create RESTful Services using WCF services. And to use WebApi download and install the latest version of ASP.NET mvc.

If you check the drop down in the top of the File => New Project box, make sure that .NET Framework version is at least 4.5. There should be a list that includes ASP .NET Web application. Clicking that should open another dialog box with the templates for creating a Web API solution
