Run a .NET Aspire application on Arm-based VMs on AWS and GCP

About this Learning Path

Who is this for?

This is an introductory topic for software developers interested in learning how to deploy .NET Aspire applications on Arm-based virtual machines (VMs) on Amazon Web Services (AWS) and Google Cloud Platform (GCP).

What will you learn?

Upon completion of this learning path, you will be able to:

• Demonstrate knowledge and understanding of .NET Aspire developer tools.
• Create a .NET Aspire application.
• Modify code on a Windows on Arm development machine.
• Deploy a .NET Aspire application to Arm-powered virtual machines in the Cloud.

Prerequisites

Before starting, you will need the following:

• A Windows on Arm machine, for example the Windows Dev Kit 2023 , or a Lenovo Thinkpad X13s running Windows 11 to build the .NET Aspire project.
• An Arm-based instance from AWS or GCP.
• Any code editor. Visual Studio Code for Arm64 is an example of a suitable editor.
