Hello. I'm new to ASP.NET and I'm trying to use ASP.NET Boilerplate as a starting point. I downloaded the template (SPA, EF) and followed the instructions given. After that, these errors occurred (screenshots attached). I'm using VS Community 2015.
Do I need to download SQL Server for this to work? Thanks for the help!

Asp.net boilerplate is a template to build enterprise data-driven solutions. And with Entity Framework integration, you certainly need to get SQL Server installed for it to work. When the template is executed, it tries to create tables automatically on SQL Server for you. So if there's no SQL server installed, you can't use it at all.
Since you are a newbie to ASP.NET, I recommend that you build yourself up by starting with basic asp.net programming and other .NET technologies. It is not advisable to take up asp.net boilerplate as a newbie to asp.net as you will get frustrated because of the code practices it was built with.
Good luck.
