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! 📊😄

Aspire 13.5 features, day 3 The Aspire CLI was missing an icon, and so sported the ugly default .NET icon. That's been fixed 💜🟣🟪 Browsing the executable on disk or spotting an Aspire process in task manager, the new icon makes everything feel at least 200% more Aspire-y.

Aspire 13.5 features, day 2 The dashboard's console logs page lets you view all stdout and stderr across your entire solution in one place. Extremely useful! In Aspire 13.5, we've added 🔍 search, so you can quickly filter down to exactly the information you're looking for 🔥
