Configuring WP to work on IIS 10.0 (Windows 10)

I have my development machine set up with IIS 10.0 Express (which comes with Visual Studio 2015 express, which I have installed and normally use). I was wondering if anyone can point me to directions to getting IIS configured to work so it can host WP for development purposes?
I know that I can technically install Apache alongside IIS (and just give it a different listening port, such as 8080) but I’d rather try to get it to work with an IIS setup first, and then do Apache if I have to.

Unfortunately, I need to keep IIS running for other reasons so this is the preferred web host platform I’d like to use. I already have PHP 5.6 and MySQL 5.6 configured for IIS, so can anyone let me know what I need to do to ensure that WP will work on this install?

My biggest concern is mod_Rewrite. I think (if I remember correctly) there is a version of that for IIS, but I’m not sure if it works the same as the Apache version, or mod_rewrite is controlled by PHP (as I haven’t used Mod_rewrite if any of my previous web projects).
