The .NET Aspire team just dropped version 9.5, and it’s all about making life easier for developers building distributed apps — especially if you’re working with AI. Deets over here on VSM: https://visualstudiomagazine.com/articles/2025/09/29/net-aspire-9-5-simplifies-apphost-expands-ai-support.aspx
You can now model your entire cloud-native app in a single AppHost file. No more juggling multiple projects just to get a prototype off the ground.
And if you’re integrating LLMs, the new GenAI Visualizer shows prompt-response flows right inside the Aspire dashboard — basically, a way to debug AI behavior without flying blind.
