Modern applications increasingly rely on distributed backends—spanning APIs, databases, real-time communication, and AI services. Managing this complexity during local development can be a major bottleneck. In this talk, we’ll explore how .NET Aspire helps developers tame this chaos and build scalable, cloud-native apps with confidence.
Using Visage, an open-source event management platform for OSS communities, I’ll demonstrate how Aspire streamlines development with features like service discovery, dependency injection, and Blazor Hybrid integration. You’ll see how Aspire accelerates the inner loop, simplifies debugging with integrated observability, and handles service interactions with built-in resilience.

New for this session: I’ll showcase how Aspire interoperates seamlessly with Node.js and Python apps, making it a powerful choice for polyglot teams building AI-ready systems.
Forget abstract theory—this is a hands-on, code-first session packed with practical insights, architecture diagrams, and lessons learned from building Visage. Whether you're a .NET veteran or exploring Aspire for the first time, you’ll leave equipped to build faster, debug smarter, and scale confidently
