Demonstrates making .NET Core Options dynamic at runtime by using IOptionsMonitor and the post-configure pipeline to change settings without modifying library code. Shows a Consul-backed ConfigurationProvider that pushes updates, and concrete code examples including live log-level switching, integration with HttpClientFactory and hosted background services, and a migration pattern using a configurable connection string.
