.NET Aspire is Microsoft’s new “Opinionated, Cloud-Ready stack for building Observable, Production-ready, Cloud-native applications” – but what does that actually mean? This session will help unpack that for you with some practical examples during which I’ll walk through migrating an existing container-based app to Aspire, highlighting what works well, what needs rethinking, and how Aspire can streamline development workflows. I’ll also explore the tools that come with Aspire, the local development story, and what deployment looks like for real-world applications.

This session is aimed at developers curious about Aspire and those already building cloud-native applications who want to know how this new stack can enhance their projects. Expect practical advice, honest insights, and a look at how Aspire might just change the way you approach cloud-native development.
