Overview
WebMatrix is a free, lightweight, cloud-connected web development tool that lets users create, build and deploy websites based upon the web technologies and content management systems of their choosing. Sites can be built from templates or from scratch, and more than 40 open source web applications are supported, like the popular Wordpress, Joomla, DotNetNuke, and more, and files can then be edited in HTML, CSS, ASP.NET or PHP. Naturally, Microsoft put some special shine on ASP.NET in WebMatrix and included support for the "Razor" view engine and special single-line-of-code helper functions to integrate with external social and commercial services.
