I have upgraded my VS to new version VS community 15 which requires CR 14 to work with it. I installed but it is not showing its components in toolbox. Does VS 15 give proper compatibility with CR 14? If So what are the steps to make it work?

Install the Crystal report service Pack 15 and check the list of fixed issues: Incident 508399
It works for me with Visual Studio 2015 Community Edition (with .NET 4.6)

Visual Studio 2015 is not compatible with crystal reports yet.
Compatibility is planned for the next service pack which is due out sometime in September.

When SAP says "Developer Version for Visual Studio .NET does NOT support Express Editions of any version of Visual Studio .NET. VS." do they include community editions ? – Bastien Vandamme Nov 18 '15 at 03:06

I will answer my own comment because I found the information in detail of Kicasd link Incident 508399 VS 2015 Community not detected 2181302 seems resolved in Pack 15. After installing pack 15 I can see the Crystal Reports template in Add New Item window – Bastien Vandamme Nov 18 '15 at 03:33
