I am trying to build a bootstraper application with WiX 3.8 that will install IIS Express 8 and sql server 2012. I saw the link below but they arent using a bundle and the answer is only for parts of sql 2012 that I dont really need. All of the "tutorials" i have found seem extremely outdated - based on old versions of wix. Does anyone have any suggestions? This is as far as I have gotten. I also cant seem to find anyway to install IIS or SQL Server or LocalDB silently with an answer file or something similar. The end goal is to provide no UI outside of wix for these installs.
