    Aspire 13.5 features, day 5 Aspire now supports interactive terminal sessions! 🖥️ The WithTerminal() extension method in the AppHost attaches an interactive pseudo-terminal (PTY) to any Aspire resource, letting you interact with it directly from the dashboard 🤯

    Aspire 13.5 features, day 4 Metrics squeeze a lot of information into a single counter using dimensions. E.g. view data per page by adding the URL as a tag. In 13.5, you can switch dimensions by selecting a tag. One less click, and we're passing the savings on to yooouu! 📊😄
