About IIS?

IIS 8.0 Express is a valuable tool for Windows developers, allowing for efficient development and testing of web applications. By incorporating the robust functionality of IIS 8.0 with the ease of a lightweight web server like the ASP.NET Development Server (Cassini), this software streamlines the development process. It is a key component of Microsoft WebMatrix, a comprehensive suite of tools designed to simplify web application development on Windows. Additionally, IIS 8.0 Express can be seamlessly integrated with Microsoft Visual Studio, providing a powerful alternative to Cassini.
