Introducing Aspire - a dev-first toolkit for your entire stack

Modern frontend teams don’t just build UIs—they orchestrate APIs, databases, and cloud-native services. But the local dev loop is messy. Aspire changes that.

.NET

Azure

Architecture

Cloud

DevOps

Microservices

Testing

It’s a dev-first toolkit that spins up your entire app—frontend, backend, and dependencies—with a built-in dashboard for logs, health checks, and traces. And if you aren't already using Open Telemetry, Aspire knows how to turn it on for your whole stack.
No replatforming, no YAML, and no cloud required. Just "aspire run" to start everything from your frontend to your custom containers - no matter the language.
Come see how Aspire streamlines your stack and bring sanity back to local development.
