You start with a web app, an API, storage, and Key Vault. The app works. The demo works. Everyone is happy. Then the production checklist shows up. 😱

If you ever wanted to secure the network on your Azure apps, Aspire is the easiest way to do it:

We merged an early C# 15 preview feature into .NET 11 preview 3: unions.

Adds union declarations (`union Pet(Cat, Dog, Bird) { ... }`) and union types (attributed with `[Union]`).
They can be treated by pattern matching/switch expressions as a closed set for exhaustiveness.

[David Fowler @davidfowl]

The next version of aspire will support TypeScript based apphosts and without .NET being installed on the machine. We prototyped ~4 different approaches over the last year until we found a path that we liked.

Here's a react (with vite) + express app described using.

#aspire #typescript

@dxbydt @shanselman If you native AOT your .net app, and want to include other .net libraries, you should reference them as normal. Don’t compile each library into a native .dll and p/invoke into them from the .net app. That would be a waste.

[Eric Erhardt @eehardt]

@dxbydt @shanselman Which now the question is: what if you load 2 native AOT compiled libraries? You get 2 GCs.

[Eric Erhardt @eehardt]

@dxbydt @shanselman It works the same way it does with a “normal” application. The garbage collector is still in the native AOT library, so when your library allocates, the GC tracks the allocations and performs cleanups as necessary in the background.

Need a handy guide to walk you through adding #Aspire to a Python RAG app? 🗺️

How about this one by @eehardt: https://t.co/PBF6NOcBK3

[Eric Erhardt @eehardt]

This project was a lot of fun. I got to learn a lot about how to create RAG applications along the way.

[Aspire 💫 @aspiredotdev]

Adding Aspire to a Python RAG app transforms the dev experience.

Run Python + TypeScript locally with one command, get built-in OpenTelemetry, and deploy to Azure Container Apps without custom Bicep.
