Method 1
I posed the same question and got a lot of hate for it. The winning answer is the Metro UI Pack. It does a lot of what they do in Azure, but you’d have to implement the rest yourself.
Method 2
KnockOut Js
Require Js
TypeScript
Less
ASP.NET
D3 Js
Web sockets

Method 3
The CSS is probably custom, but the portal uses a few open source libraries for the javascript part:
- jquery-1.7.1
- jquery-ui
- jsObservable
- JsRender
- JsViews
- jquery.event.drag
Method 4
You can take a look at this codepen: https://codepen.io/utillity/project/editor/ArjgLa
It's basically a cascade of flexboxes.

Microsoft probably did not use this framework, but you might try jq-metro
