This sample demonstrates integrating a Node.js app and an ASP.NET Core HTTP API using Aspire.

The sample consists of two apps:

  • NodeFrontend: This is a simple Express-based Node.js app that renders an almanac-style weather forecast retrieved from a backend API and utilizes a Redis cache.
  • AspireWithNode.AspNetCoreApi: This is an ASP.NET Core HTTP API that returns randomly generated weather forecast data.

Prerequisites

Running the app

If using the Aspire CLI, run aspire run from this directory.

If using VS Code, open this directory as a workspace and launch the AspireWithNode.AppHost project using either the Aspire or C# debuggers.

If using Visual Studio, open the solution file AspireWithNode.slnx and launch/debug the AspireWithNode.AppHost project.

If using the .NET CLI, run dotnet run from the AspireWithNode.AppHost directory.
