Demystify cloud-native development with .NET Aspire
summary
.NET Aspire surfaces opinionated tools, templates and NuGet integrations that wire up observability, health checks and infra so a multi-service app boots locally with a single apphost. The demo spins up Redis, Postgres and RabbitMQ containers, shows a 2.2 ms cache hit from Redis, and displays traces/metrics via openTelemetry in a local dashboard. The eShop sample runs under the dashboard, recovers from repeated API failures, supports hot reload, and deploys to Azure Container Apps with the azd up flow — local-first works and the cloud deploy path exists today.
