IIS Express integration for VSCode

Package Exports

    This package does not declare an exports field, so the exports above have been automatically detected and optimized by JSPM instead. If any package subpath is missing, it is recommended to post an issue to the original package (iis-express-vscode) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.

    logo IIS Express for VSCode

    Simple extension that let you easily integrate IIS Express into your ASP.NET projects with VSCode.

    Fully-fledge IDEs such as Visual Studio or JetBrains Rider already have the tooling to do that, but it is lacking in VSCode. The very few extensions are available either don't support all the features available with IIS Express or require the use of 3rd-party software to work.

    This extension uses VSCode tasks, launch configurations, generated scripts and generated IIS Express specific configuration files to work, that's it.

    Features

    • Integrates with new and existing projects
    • Uses your launchSettings.json to configure IIS Express
    • Does all the IIS Express configuration for you (that you can edit manually if you wish to)
    • Start debugging with one key press (F5)
    • IIS Express output available in the terminal
    • IIS Express stdout logs available in the build folder (e.g. bin/Debug/net8.0/.iis-express/logs)
    • Closes IIS Express when you stop debugging (and the debugger also stops when you close IIS Express)
    • Can start in Debug or Release configuration (using predefined tasks)
    • You can edit every configuration and script as you wish

    Requirements

    • IIS Express (usually comes with Visual Studio Web Developpement installation module)

    Get started

    • Install the extension
    • Open a new or existing ASP.NET project
    • Open the command palette (Ctrl + Shift + P)
    • Type IIS Express
    • Select the IIS Express: Initialize command
    • Select the Starting project
    • Follow the simple instructions
    • Press F5 to start the application

    Commands

    • IIS Express: Initialize : Setup the current solution to be able to boot a project with IIS Express
    • IIS Express: Stop : Manually closes any IIS Express instances running (sometimes IIS Express can get stuck. Can also happens in other IDEs like Visual Studio or JetBrains Rider, so here's a quick command to stop it)
