Aspire 13.4.6 wins the .NET inner loop because it runs your projects as host processes you can debug, while Docker Compose wins when the compose file is also your CI and deployment contract. Measured startup and edit-to-running timings on both, the configuration each one injects for you, and the six gotchas that decide it.

Add Aspire 13.4 to a brownfield ASP.NET Core solution by adding two new projects and three lines per service: aspire init, AppHost wiring with AddProject and WithReference, keeping your existing launchSettings.json and connection strings, and the resilience, health-endpoint, and proxy gotchas that bite on day one.

Aspire 13.2.4 ships an OpenTelemetry bump for CVE-2026-40894, a Gen0 allocation amplification in baggage, B3, and Jaeger propagator parsing. Update OpenTelemetry.Api and OpenTelemetry.Extensions.Propagators to 1.15.3 even if you are not on Aspire.

Aspire 13.2 ships an --isolated flag that gives each aspire run its own random ports and secrets store. It unblocks multi-checkout work, agent worktrees, and integration tests that need a live AppHost.

dotnet watch gains Aspire app host integration, automatic relaunch after crashes, and fixed Ctrl+C handling for Windows desktop apps in .NET 11 Preview 3.
