  • You can install the VS 2012 /2013 on the server where SP 2013 is installed and start development.Otherwise, you can download the client side OM sdk , start programming using CSOM only.

You can create new project and compile without SharePoint installed but to run and test you need SharePoint to be installed in your development machine. Please refer this link.

  • You need to export [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Shared Tools\Web Server Extensions\14.0] from registry and install it in your local machine. No other changes you need to do. You can create new SharePoint project in your local machine. I tried here. It works.

Actual thing is that Visual Studio 2010 by default did not support Sharepoint 2013. For that you have follow bellow URL

And also take a look at this link which states the Requirement for SP 2013
