Distributed applications are powerful, but also complex to stitch together. Between service discovery, configuration, observability, and deployment, developers spend more time wiring up infrastructure than building features. Enter Aspire, a set of tools that simplifies the distributed developer experience.

In this session, we’ll explore how Aspire helps you connect “all the things” in your application ecosystem: APIs, databases, messaging systems, and cloud services without drowning in boilerplate. We'll configure new integrations for our existing systems and containers that we need in our development workspace.

We'll wrap up with some fun examples that show you Aspire can do a lot more than just run a web server and backoffice infrastructure.
