Kestrel is a cross-platform HTTP server based on libuv(https://github.com/libuv/libuv) a cross-platform asynchronous I/O library. It is similar to IIS Express in Standard ASP.NET development. Kestrel is the web server that is included by default in ASP.NET Core new-project templates. If your application accepts requests only from an internal network you can use Kestrel by itself.
