aspire-py-startertemplate from thedotnet newtemplate system (C# AppHost) to the Aspire CLI template system (TypeScript AppHost). Users who previously randotnet new aspire-py-starternow need to useaspire new aspire-py-starter. The existing documentation described the old C# AppHost structure, and there was no documentation of the new--use-redis-cacheoption.What was changed
Files modified
src/frontend/src/content/docs/whats-new/aspire-13-3.mdx— Added a new "🐍 Python starter template migrated to TypeScript AppHost" section explaining the breaking change, the new--use-redis-cacheoption, and the migration guidance.src/frontend/src/content/docs/get-started/aspire-sdk-templates.mdx— Updated the "Aspire Starter App with FastAPI and React" description to reflect that it now uses a TypeScript AppHost, lists the actual template files (apphost.ts,app/,frontend/) rather than the old C# project names, mentions--use-redis-cache, and notes the .NET SDK is no longer required.src/frontend/src/content/docs/reference/cli/commands/aspire-new.mdx— Updated theaspire-py-starterentry in the commands table to note it uses a TypeScript AppHost, and added a new "aspire-py-starter options" subsection documenting--use-redis-cache.All three pages were updated (none newly created).
