Using .NET Aspire in practice

In this section, we will adapt the Kubernetes example of Chapter 8, Practical Microservices Organization with Kubernetes, to run with Aspire. As a first step, let’s copy the whole solution folder into another in a different location, so we can modify it without destroying the previous version.

Then, let’s execute the following steps to prepare the overall solution:

1. Add a new App Host project to the solution and call it CarSharingAppHost.
2. Add a new .NET Aspire Service Defaults project to the solution and call it CarSharingServiceDefaults.
3. Add a reference to the FakeSource, FakeDestination, and RoutesPlanning projects to the CarSharingAppHost project.
