Welcome to random Wiki of the Day, your journey through Wikipedia's vast and varied content, one random article at a time.
The random article for Friday, 8 May 2026, is ASP.NET Web Matrix.
ASP. NET Web Matrix, whose name was the inspiration for WebMatrix, was released in 2003 and later discontinued by Microsoft in favor of Web Developer Express, a free version of Visual Studio's web development functionality; Visual Studio is Microsoft's flagship IDE for all aspects of Visual Basic and C# coding, including ASP. NET development.
What had changed by 2010 was the existence of a number of open source projects offering PHP and ASP. NET site templates and Content Management Systems that could be used by non-programmers to build and maintain rich web applications. Microsoft WebMatrix provided a development environment to help facilitate these emerging styles of website creation.
