You can simply run ng b --prod --base-href./ and copy your dist folder into you IIS Project.

The --base-href is important then otherwise angular would search for his source files in the root directory of your server.

Als create a web.config in your root directory.

Otherwise if you would call url yourApp / login , IIS would search for a login folder that does not exist. With the config the IIS does not resolve the URL from yourApp any more, and angular can do the rest
