Mission 2

This talk was given at Future Tech 2026.

You have likely heard about .NET Aspire, maybe saw the demos about the AppHost, and cool features like Service Discovery, Telemetry, and Lifecycle Hooks. But how do they work under the hood? In this session you'll find out! I will skip the basics, and show you how the (at this time) undocumented Developer Control Plane helps with a lot of the heavy lifting for the App Host, how to create custom integrations, and more.
