Your whole distributed app, one F5 away.
The official Aspire extension for Visual Studio Code brings your AppHost, resources, debuggers, and dashboard into one development loop.

Integrations
Start here
An AppHost defines your app in code: services, containers, databases, front ends, and the connections between them.
- Open an Aspire project or create a new one using the Aspire view.
- Choose your AppHost and press F5. Aspire starts every resource in the right order and connects supported debuggers.
- Use the Aspire view and Aspire Dashboard to follow resources, endpoints, logs, traces, and metrics.
A better inner dev loop
- Run your apps: Start, debug, and stop an Aspire application, or use the available start, stop, and restart actions for individual resources, from the Aspire view.
- Debug across your stack: Aspire debug sessions support C#, JavaScript, Python, Go, Java, and Rust application resources when the corresponding debugger is available. Java and Rust debugging require Aspire 13.6 or later.
- See live health and analytics: Open the Aspire dashboard for resource health, endpoints, console logs, structured logs, distributed traces, and metrics.
- Monitor without leaving VS Code: See resource health summaries and quick actions beside resource definitions in your AppHost.
- Move toward production. Deploy, publish artifacts, and run pipeline steps using the Aspire view.
Bring your stack
Aspire can bring together C#, TypeScript and JavaScript, Python, Go, Java, containers, databases, cloud resources, and more. Browse the integration gallery to find the pieces your app needs.
