I migrated my application from Docker Compose to Aspire.

Here's what I learned during the transition.

I've been using Aspire for almost every new project.

But what is Aspire?

It's Microsoft's cloud-native development tool.

".NET Aspire is an opinionated, cloud-ready stack for building observable, production-ready, distributed applications."

It solves many things for you out of the box:

- Orchestration
- Service discovery
- Health checks, reliability
- OpenTelemetry (logging + tracing + metrics)

I often use Docker Compose to configure my applications for localhost. It's a simple setup. But you need to manage environment variables and connection strings. If you're unfamiliar with Docker, it can be tricky sometimes.

Aspire simplifies this whole setup.

So, I migrated this application to Aspire and documented the process.

Here's the complete breakdown (+source code): https://t.co/ST9tnziX82

What do you think about Aspire?

Visual Studio tip:

When creating a method that returns json using a raw string literal add

/* lang=json*/

Which is undocumented. If there is a syntax issue like a missing comma Visual Studio will flag it.

Unit test failures? Visual Studio 2026 Insiders (October) introduces the Debugger Agent for Unit Tests — a powerful new way to resolve issues fast. ...just right-click a failed test, select “Debug with Copilot,” and let the agent analyze, fix, rerun, and iterate until it passes.

Efficient. Automated. Developer-friendly. Watch this video to see just how much... https://t.co/EuAbVr8wxV

How can you enforce your software architecture rules?

The C# compiler is pretty limited, and code reviews are expensive.

Luckily, there's a middle ground that I use in my projects.

Architecture testing.

These are automated tests that verify the structure and design of your code.

You can use them to enforce design rules expressed with C# code.

- Enforce the direction of project dependencies
- Define naming conventions for classes
- Force classes to be sealed

Here's how you can write your first architecture test in minutes: https://t.co/L7eIHdb7pQ
