dotnet-aspire-starter

To scaffold a production-ready .NET Aspire application, run the dotnet new aspire-starter command to generate a complete solution with frontend, REST API, EF Core migrations, and observability patterns. This ensures a ready-to-run project setup.

A .NET Aspire starter project includes ASP.NET MVC with TypeScript, a REST API with EF Core, OpenTelemetry for Grafana-ready observability, Polly-based resilience, and OIDC authentication preparation to accelerate production-grade deployments.

Yes, you can use OpenTelemetry and Polly in a .NET Aspire project. The starter scaffold pre-configures OpenTelemetry for Grafana-ready telemetry and applies Polly-based resilience patterns to ensure reliable microservices.

The best way to bootstrap a .NET Aspire web app with EF Core and observability is using an automated scaffolding tool that applies Microsoft coding standards, pre-configures telemetry, and includes VS Code templates for rapid feature development.

Yes, the .NET Aspire scaffold includes a full-stack setup with an ASP.NET MVC frontend using TypeScript and a REST API backend with EF Core migrations, ensuring both frontend and database layers are ready for immediate feature work.

You need OIDC preparation in a newly scaffolded .NET Aspire project to accelerate production-grade deployments by laying the groundwork for secure authentication, ensuring the application is ready for identity provider integration before feature development.
