Having a server on your desktop can be handy in different ways. First, it is instrumental in learning the .NET technology and the JScript .NET language. In this series on JScript .NET, we rely on you having components of the .NET framework, such as the JScript compiler (jsc.exe), which you will get when installing the .NET SDK (Software Development Kit). In order for the .NET SDK to install correctly, you must have IIS already up and running. Installing IIS after .NET SDK won't work--you'll have to install the .NET SDK again, once IIS is installed.

Another reason to have a server on your desktop is to learn other related .NET technologies. You always wanted to write an e-commerce site, including a connected SQL database. With a server on your desktop, you can use ASP.NET to develop an e-commerce site on your PC, including a shopping cart and credit card payment processing.

To learn more on JScript .NET, go to Column 107, JScript .NET, Part I: The Mechanics.
