Here is what it looks like so you won’t be tempted to peek. 
“Add an App”
Everything is in a SharePoint site is now an app.
This includes lists and libraries. Though the actual implementation of
lists and libraries has not changed, they are now called apps to create a
more unified experience.
e.g. if you would like to create a new document library, you need to
create an app and pick document library and then name it.

Terminology Change:
“Permissions” are now called Sharing.
Share on the top of all pages (when logged in) will allow you to give permissions to your
whole site.
Gives people access to the site.
The icon on the list/library ribbon what used to be for permissions still is. It just looks a little
different. It will show permissions first then you can “Invite” people from there.
Document Management
1) You can now open a list or library (app) and drag a document right into it from your
computer. As you drag over, you’ll get a “Drop Here” box.
2) When you open a document, there is now a SHARE button on the menu. You can
invite others to edit documents.
 From the library (app) click to open the document. It will open in Office Web Apps.
 You’ll see a “SHARE” link on the top menu

You’ll get a window that looks list an email window. Select people to share with
and add a personal message.
3) Copying and pasting from Word has improved. Now after you paste you will get a
“paste options” window where you can choose to bring over the formatting or not.
Paste / Paste Clean / Paste Plain Text. You cannot copy and paste images.
4) When viewing your documents in a list you will see 2 dots to the right of the file name.
Click the dots to get a call-out window with info about that document.
Click the 3 dots at the bottom next to OPEN and SHARE.
This is where you go to edit the properties of a file
(rename it), check version history, delete the file, and
more.
Mobile View and Responsive Design
Visitors to your sites will now see a mobile view when using phones and tablets.
“Hamburger Button”.
An expandable menu.
Your page will resize and rearrange to
accommodate the smaller screen.
*Note: Larger tables will not resize
Users may have to scroll over.
Take a look at your site from your iPhone or Android device to see how it looks.
You may want to consider making some changes if things look horrible.
BONUS!
Sharepoint 2013 has made it easier to add HTML and/or Script to your SharePoint site. There
is now a Web Part called “Script Editor”. It’s under the Media and Content category.
