Summary

In this chapter, we implemented a basic WCF service, hosted it within IIS Express, and created a command-line program to reference and consume this basic WCF service. At this point, you should have a thorough understanding of what a WCF service is under the hood. You will benefit from this knowledge when you develop WCF services using Visual Studio WCF templates.

In the next chapter, we will explore more hosting options so that you can choose an appropriate hosting method for your WCF services.
