Stop Rewriting. Start with Aspire.

dotnet demonstrates how .NET Aspire can modernize an existing .NET application using the Aspire onboarding flow, focusing on reducing manual setup like YAML and hand-rolled OpenTelemetry while bringing the app into an Aspire-managed workflow.

The video tours the .NET Aspire onboarding flow for taking an existing .NET app and bringing it into an Aspire-based setup.

Key elements called out in the description:

• Using the Aspire onboarding flow, including aspire init
• Using the new Aspireify agent skill to help modernize an existing app
• Demonstrating the process live against the MVC Music Store sample application
• Emphasis on avoiding a “weekend of YAML” and avoiding hand-rolled OpenTelemetry (OTel) setup by leaning on Aspire’s workflow
