JavaScript and Metro application templates in VS2012 Ultimate RC on Win 7

Hi, I installed VS2012 Ultimate RC on Win 7. But it does not display project templates for a Metro style application for VB and C # and nothing for JavaScript. Is it necessary to install this VS on Win 8 RC, then only it will display templates for Metro and Javascript. Or is there a separate version of VS for this?

Win8 development is supported only on Win8. VS installs on any Windows OS with Vista and supports classic application development, but as you can see, you won’t have access to Win8 application styles.

Since Win8 rc is available for free, you can download it and install it on a virtual machine and the code for this option for an inexpensive workaround. You do not need this to be your primary OS. Development in VM has a lot of advantages, but that’s not what you asked for, so I’ll leave it to that.
