I've been attempting to publish a few projects through asp.net using visual studio, & then host them through IIS 10 Express, however I've been doing this with windows 10 os. I've recently come to realization that this likely should be replaced with windows server 2019 but I would like to ask two questions I've been stumped on.
1. Is it 100% necessary to use windows server 2019 os, or can I host my projects live just within the windows 10 os & IIS 10 Express ?
2. If/When I get windows server 2019 os how would I determine how many core licenses I would need for a 10 core processor, the Intel Xeon w-1290p. Is the windows server 2019 os with an 8 core license sufficient &/or best ?
Thank you for any feedback, Austin.
are there any known fatal reasons not to buy 3rd party, similar to apples error messages when buying none OEM parts ?

Not really, just vet the vendor.

there are two licenses typically for windows servers. the server itself, and client licenses to access the server. access from the internet is a different license (Windows Server External Connector).
you have not stated the number of client accessing the server and if these are internal clients with cals, or external clients. this typically has more impact on the price than the number of cores.
