Aspire Configuration
When to Use This Skill
Use this skill when:
- Wiring AppHost resources to application configuration in Aspire-based repos
- Ensuring production configuration is transparent and portable outside of Aspire
- Avoiding Aspire client/service-discovery packages inside application code
- Designing feature toggles for dev/test without changing app code paths
Core Principles
-
AppHost owns Aspire infrastructure packages
- Aspire Hosting packages belong in AppHost only.
- App projects should not reference Aspire client/service-discovery packages.
-
Explicit configuration only
