You are accesing localhost , meaning you have a web server running on your machine. To access it from Internet, you need to assign a public IP address to your machine. Then you can access http://<public_ip>:<port>/ . Port number is normally 80.
You can access your host machine with the IP address "10.0. 2.2". This has been designed in this way by the Android team. So your webserver can perfectly run at localhost and from your Android app you can access it via "http://10.0.2.2:8080".
In computer networking, localhost is a hostname that refers to the current device used to access it. It is used to access the network services that are running on the host via the loopback network interface. Using the loopback interface bypasses any local network interface hardware.
You need to add an inbound rule in the firewall for port 80 (or whatever port you used for your website on IIS):
After that you should be able to access your site from other devices in the same network using http://computername (e.g. http://myhomepc)
