.NET Aspire Beyond the Introduction
summary
Explains what runs under .NET Aspire: a Kubernetes‑style API provided by a local distributed control plane and the three executables DCP.exe / DCP control / DCP proc. Builds a reusable extension that registers a Neo4j container resource with ports, health check, parameterized password, persistent lifetime and volume mapping, exposes a connection‑string reference expression, and adds both a seed database command (custom and HTTP variants) and service‑location for external APIs. Proves a basic enterprise publisher that collects deployment metadata and writes an email summary file; demos mostly succeed with a few minor UI quirks.
