Meet .NET Aspire

.NET Aspire is our new cloud-native stack that provides tools and libraries to simplify the development of cloud-native applications. It lets developers focus on the logic that matters and the tools they know and love.

Connect with .NET:

#dotnet #cloudnative #dotnetaspire #aspire

I'm still none the wiser what aspire is.

I've played around with it a few weeks ago. I like that it basically just configures everything for you and I can just click "Run" in visual studio (not vscode, but visual studio) and the debugger is attached and everything... breakpoints work, integrates with docker nicely (just make sure you are running docker desktop in the background)

this is basically a full-stack + deployment system ready for you. Personally, I do like having this as a kind of baseline to develop upon. It reminds me of the days of winforms where it was easy to build and deploy with something like clickonce

When I use .NET Aspire, my packages for external tools like database, cache, queue must be the Aspire Package or be other? Example EFCore, EasyQ. Using other libraries I keep with this trace available? And how do a connection, once that a new container is update for each run.

This still tells us nothing about what it is and how it's specifically used. Why should I use this over Blazor server? It looks the same.

Correct me if I am wrong but this seems to spin up one container per service compared to related container services or functions. So wouldn't it make small projects a lot more expensive to run with service instance utilization is low? It would also be good to have a VSTS deploy template (if it does not exist) to ensure deployments are managed rather than ad-hoc 'publish'. It looks like a great starting point for first release though.

That background is extremely difficult to look at. My eyes kept going out of focus like I was looking at a stereogram.

[mattrobb]

OK. Thats how much you love it and you already know about Aspire and what it can do. But I'm a Maui developer, so what is Aspire and can it help me? Oh and what is the learning curve like?

[DConnor]

Looks like they all got the same hand gesture training!

[MatijaGrcic]

This is great; everything that was once split into individual packages and libraries is now cohesive.

I understood nothing from this video. For sure you need another specialist who can clearly tell the story of the product. Is it a server? Is it a platform? Is it a web-application build on top of... on top of what? Is it a Linux/Windows service that run and able to monitor applications? Where this applications are running Docker/IIS/Kestrel? 2 minutes about nothing...
