What's New in Aspire for .NET Developers

Maddy Montaquila, Damian Edwards

Last year, we told you that Aspire was for every developer - not just .NET developers. We've seen amazing adoption across all different languages, but of course, we have a special place in our heart for .NET. As we added new languages to Aspire, we challenged some of our early .NET-centric assumptions, and discovered a few ways to improve the experience we originally shipped. We're bringing some of these learnings back to the Aspire + .NET workflow, some which you can use today, and some coming very soon! Join Maddy and Damian from the Aspire team to learn how Aspire is better than ever for .NET developers - even if we changed the name 😉

How Aspire uses .NET to build an agent-first toolchain for any programming language

Maddy Montaquila, Jose Perez Rodriguez

.NET is the backbone of a toolchain built for the next generation of software development - Aspire. Join Jose, Aspire's team lead, and Maddy, Aspire PM, to explore how the Aspire CLI, AppHost, Dashboard, and developer tooling come together to give agents a structured way to understand, run, debug, observe, and deploy distributed applications. We'll look at how Aspire brings together .NET technologies like Blazor, Native AOT, code generation, and more, to extend the development experience beyond .NET to languages like TypeScript, Python, and even Java. The result is a toolchain where .NET provides the orchestration, developer experience, and runtime foundation while developers and agents can work across the languages they're comfortable with for their apps. Come see how Aspire is using .NET to build a toolchain where developers and agents can work together across any codebase!
